Dear Chad: Late it may be, but I had to check out Veltheimia bractea on the wikki anyway or I could not sleep. I do not know if it is V. bractea, but I think you nailed it as a Veltheimia! The bloom will tell. I'll still work on the pictures. Rand >More and more this Lach is sounding like a small Veltheimia bractea... > >Chad Schroter
