This does not look like what I grow as H lazulina, my best plant was bought
about 10 years ago and is still only one (large) bulb. my plants are darker
in coulor, with even darker tips to the petals which do flare but are much
blunter. the leaves are wavey with longditudinal ribbs on the back. the
anther is so dark as to appear black, filament white, stigma level with the
anthers but elongating in fruit.
I wish I had a key to the Hyacinthellas, there are lots of names and lots
of slightly different plants but I have not yet found anyone who is sure
which plant and which name go together. as I have 15 or 20 pots of these,
each one supposedly different, (and many still very small), it is of some
interest to me.
