Hi, I've been working for a couple of weeks to add habitat pictures for this genus and some close-ups of the gorgeous intricate flowers as well. There are quite a number of species although I guess a lot of them are white and difficult to tell apart. Only a few of the more spectacular ones seem to be in cultivation. The corms are tiny and growing them is a bit tricky. Some of them are found growing in really wet places (most of them are southwest Cape, South Africa) so require good water while growing and since they aren't large, growing them in a pot is best. On our trip to South Africa almost a year ago we saw these species in mass: Geissorhiza aspera, Geissorhiza inaequalis, Geissorhiza monanthos, Geissorhiza radians, and Geissorhiza splendidissima. And we saw some interestingly marked Geissorhiza heterostyla in the Komsberg. Although I've had no luck growing it, I love seeing Geissorhiza ovata in the wild and we saw it too and G. ornithogaloides. I've also added some close-ups from Alan Horstmann and some habitat pictures of Cameron's. Rachel Saunders helped me figure out one of Roy Herold's flowers from the Mystery Page. I had thought it was one of the long tubed Ixias, but it had exserted stamens so that didn't fit. There is a group of larger flowered Geissorhizas that used to be in a genus known as Engysiphon that were included in Geissorhiza saving us from having to figure out how to pronounce Engysiphon. I think the white flowers that Roy saw in the hills above Muizenburg, south of Cape Town, in October 2002 is most likely Geissorhiza exscapa. Rachel suggested that or Geisshoriza confusa, but after studying my Geissorhiza monograph for descriptions and locations and also considering G. tenella (pictured in the West Coast field guide next to G. exscapa for a nice comparison), I'm going with G. exscapa. I hope some of you will take a look as the pictures of this little know genus in the Iris family. I hope to add some more corm pictures as I have time. Some of them have too many tiny corms around the main corm. These are easily dislodged from the main corm and difficult to find in the soil since they are so tiny and in my climate seem to survive well even at this tiny size and go on to grow and one day bloom. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… Mary Sue
