Quote from: Too Many Plants! on April 06, 2025, 06:51:11 PMWell...I forget, so hopefully someone will chime in on these guys???

These have a nice sweet vanilla scent.

My guess is Albuca. I have Albuca humilis

Thank you Wylie, and cg100. Albuca rings a bell 💍🛎...

They grow easily for me in ground in my garden, and I pay them ZERO attention. They are spreading, slowly, so not a weed like the damn Freesia Laxa have become, and are quickly escalating!!

Ixia ?  I believe this is one of the commercially grown hybrids. Still, I enjoy them. I have some yellow ones too.

More Sparaxis Tricolor (hybrid ?)

Gladiolus Equitans...progress pics

Tritonia Duesta just getting started.

Here's my March send off...🎆🧨🎇 Exciting first flowering in my garden!

Gladiolus Equitans

A multi-day picture lapse leading up to today's fully open flowers...saying sayonara March.

I planted 3 bulbs 2 years ago, 2 from another source, and one from our 2023 BX.

Thank you to those PBS folks that share the bulb Love!!

Flowers are smaller than I thought they'd be. Maybe they'll get bigger in time. And hopefully next year all three will leaf out and at least two will flower. Hoping to make seed...

See ya' March ✌🏻

And I'll try to make up for my rogue post with another Geophyte post... 

Here's a Rogue post... 😁 my yellow tipped Sago. I acquired a few of these over the years keeping my eyes peeled on the HD n Lowe's inventory. This one has by far turned out the nicest. Some of the others yellow tips brown after a while. This guys yellow tips stay nice. It's even a bit more striking in person than the pics show.  

Sparaxis Tricolor

Always enjoy these guys...

Sparaxis Elegans

These are my first S. Elegans I acquired, different genetics than prior posts this past couple months. Those previously posted have a more elaborate and colorful center ring.

Ferraria Crispa - what I consider to be the quintessential Crispa (or standard) color.

Such fun, ornate, aromatic, and unique flowers! I believe these star fish of The Cape and Namaqualand, are truly underrated!

Moraea Vegeta - is proving to be a pretty good flowerer for being new to my garden (2023 BX), growing in the ground in mostly full sun. While (so far) these are small flowers, they are very ornate and interesting to appreciate. And as I've watched them progress, I've been pleasantly surprised by their display! If the flowers could get a bit bigger in a few years these will be real Winners!! These would be Fantastic for pot culture up close viewing on shelves or a window sill!!!

Lost the tag on this guy...maybe it's a Scilla ?

Sparaxis Tricolor (or is it a hybrid ?)
