Dear All,

Here are some spring flowers from my garden. Right now I am too busy to go and take pictures in the wild. We have good rain right now so maybe I will take habitat pictures later.

Enjoy 

Uli 

Freesia Hybrid 

Not a geophyte but fascinating Clathrus ruber, a mushroom. I always feel as if it had fallen from another star.....

Allium moly 

Ferraria araneosa

I cannot add more attachments, there will be a second post 

Here are some more pictures 

Lachenalia purpureo-caerulea from Silverhill Seed, only one seed germinated. Seems to be one of the last to flower.

A Pelargonium species. Can anybody help me with the name? The leaves look like fine carrot leaves and the tuber is a long woody beet. Summer dormant.


Iris filifolia from Oron Peri seed

Lycaste aromatica. Are orchids geophytes? It has (pseudo-)bulbs and is fully deciduous 

Bye for now 

Uli 

yes, we did define pseudobulbs as geophytes in the wiki.  May I encourage you to try the [species]...[/species] function?

Oh, and of course you'll always get me with a Ferraria
