Massonia echinata bulbs from NARGS 13 #1684, bright green leaves smallish white flowers with yellow pollen. 3. Massonia hyb. came as depressa from NARGS 13 #1683 but not, big wide leaves, 4. Small bulbs of Albuca humilis ex JCA 15856 Drakensburg Mtns. from NARGS 2012-#83 5. Habranthus hyb ‘Jumbo Purple’ offsets 6. Haemanthus pauculifolius seedlings 2 yrs old 7. Seeds of Clivia ‘Sahin Twins’ - deep red with big red berries, “twins" means in ideal situations it blooms 2x a year. From Monica Swartz: 8. Small bulbs of Drimia haworthioides: ex Huntington Botanic Gardens Collection #49314, this fun and easy plant has bulb scales that look like the leaves of a Haworthia when planted at the surface, then it grows fur-edged leaves in winter (they should be dying back now). One of my most requested plants. Doesn't mind year-round water with good drainage. Seems quite freeze hardy in my 8b climate but I have yet to try it in the ground. If one of the loose scales falls off, it will make bulblets on its edges if lightly buried. 9. Small bulbs of Cyrtanthus mackenii ex Buried Treasures, yellow or orange flowered From Dell Sherk: 10. Small bulbs of Hippeastrum vittatum Thank you, Rimmer and Monica !!
