Hi Mary, Many thanks for the input and links to former posts on Haemanthus. I also sent an e-mail to Dee Snijman to ask for a reprint copy of the original paper in which H. pauculifolius was described : Snijman, D. A. & van Wyk, A. E. (1993). A new species of Haemanthus (Amaryllidaceae) from the eastern Transvaal Escarpment, South Africa. South African Journal of Botany 59(2): 247–250. Looking through the web for more infos I also found an interesting PDF on Haemanthus cultivation edited by the RHS at the following url: http://rhs.org.uk/publications/plantsman/… Take care, Luc (1993).
