Manfreda has a very different inflorescence structure, though. I love the umbrella-like appearance of Eucrosia mirabilis and E. aurantiaca. In my hands both of those species seem bulletproof--I keep them warm and dry in winter, warm with regular watering in summer, and they grow and bloom like clockwork It's Eucrosia eucrosioides that I find more difficult. I have a couple of different clones, and they seem to have very irreegular growing schedules. I think they are summer growers, but they sprout erratically, go dormant unexpectedly, and don't increase in size.
