        Oh aren't they pretty @shiney. Clueless to what they are sorry. I wonder if they are related to Galtonia as they sort of remind me of them but obviously the colour is wrong and leaves much daintier but flowering around the same time and I'm presuming they are bulbs?. Maybe @Silver surfer will be able to advise as per:)

            Bit tender here, needs to be kept inside and perfectly dry over winter. A. spiralis is a fabulous plant as well.

              The A.humilis that I grew from your seed are still going well and hardy even here.

              Good oh. I seem to have lost most of my A. humilis. Think I am down to one or two bulbs now. It was pretty fiercely cold here. Not going to try building up the collection just yet until we see what sort of space we have, if we ever manage to move.
