No petals

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.

You get the same no-petals look in Manfreda, which are much easier for
most people to grow than Eucrosia, and also make more flowers.
