Habranthus

All the Sprekelia formossissima I thought I was growing, are Habranthus
robustus RussellManning, Alani. As you say, they are more like a weed,
the whole family of them, a very pretty weed though.

I had given a friend who is growing some plants, with little knowledge,
some seeds of the H. robustus a couple of years ago. Yesterday she got
her first flowers. She is over the moon, so delicate and pretty.....

I love the first flower of the H. brachyandrus! Certainlydifferent.

I admit to guessing a bit, but your plant in the photo seems well within
the range I have seen for Habranthus robustus.
