Both pot and flowers very cool!

Currently blooming in another one of my hypertufa troughs - Ipheion hirtellum (yellow) and Oxalis polyphylla var. pentaphylla.

Thanks Mike, as well as growing from seed, I have bought many bulbs from Tony Palmer's nursery 'Kellydale' here in west Auckland, and those bulbs came from there.

Also have Moraea polystachya, Crocus niveus and Oxalis purpurea 'Ken Aslet' blooming, the last two in a home-made hypertufa trough.

Thanks for that Martin, still getting my head around how this should work!
I guess one issue is that both the northern hemisphere land area and the human populations are much bigger than us here in the south.

Nicely grown plants and really like that attractive gravel mulch!

More of what is blooming here at present, 2 May 2022. Cyclamen and Hypoxis (Pauridia).

I meant to add that these are from Bill's 'Autumn Colours' strain and are blooming very early in our season. 
Bill very kindly sent me the seed after I emailed him to see whether he would sell me some.
