Hi Ken Haemanthus albiflorus and Haemanthus pauculifolius are evergreen in pots here. Haemanthus coccineus started sending up leaves in early September - the pot of 3 has 2 smooth leaves and 1 fuzzy leaf but they all came as H. coccineus. i wonder about their identity. the other pot of coccineus is fuzzy. Veltheimia bracteata sent up new leaves in August and now flower buds are present- i grow these in shade on my porch but we had a freeze warning a week ago so they are now in my basement under lights. Veltheimia bracteata seedlings started in June are now sending up green on porch. Veltheimia capensis in a sunny spot in a pot also sent up leaves in August shortly after i repotted it and watered it in. pics: https://flickr.com/photos/32952654@N06/… Rimmer SE Michigan Zone 5 where we have had a week of 70-80F days, 40-50F nights On Sep 26, 2014, at 7:43 PM, Kenneth <k.preteroti@verizon.net> wrote: > Veltheimia bracteata is leafing out but not [V]. capensis, and none of the Haemanthus are doing anything.
