(pollen parent). Germa has tubular yellow flowers. Santa Rosa has unusual
white & red flowers with reddish stems and dark red ovaries (when a pod
parent). Both are easily Google-able for pics, but here's some quick links:

18. Bulbs of Haemanthus humilis, fairly light pink flowers and was
collected near Rhodes on the Eastern Cape (from Cameron McMaster). The
Rhodes type is from a fairly cold area and goes completely dormant sooner in
the season than the deeper pink one, for what it\'s worth.
19. Bulbs of Haemanthus humilis from Dawie Human (Lifestyle Seeds), has a
lovely rich pink flower, and is also the most vigorous grower of the various
H. humilis I have or have killed.
From Monica Swartz:
BULBS:
20. Lachenalia mutabilis, ex BX 181The form I sent you is most like the
first photo on the wiki with startlingly electric blue tops to the flower
stalks.
21. Lachenalia carnosa seed ex Tom Glavich Different from the photos on the
wiki, this big Lachenalia has two bluish grooved leaves edged in red. The
flower stalk is very meaty, as thick as a finger.
22. Lachenalia namaquensis seed ex Telos Rare Bulbs
23. Ferraria crispa Dark form seed ex Telos Rare Bulbs
