Hi Shmuel,

Welcome to the PBS List. Neobakeria angustifolia is an old name for
Massonia echinata. Anytime you need to look up the most current name for a
plant, use http://www.theplantlist.org/. It's a great resource!

The plants may be ok in the 12" pot, but since the leaves take up a lot of
room, they may not lay flat if they're over crowded. Overcrowding should
not be a huge issue, but it makes them less pretty. I like planting a
single Massonia bulb per pot.
