Hi Robert,

I’ve seen photos from its native habitat where the plant looks quite large maybe 3-4 feet long with thick shoots. It is related to alstroemeria & has a similar growth pattern in that it sends up single shoots at a time. Mine have only gotten about 2 feet long & the shoots are not as thick as some I have seen. It has a summer dormancy and I keep it almost completely dry from around mid May until whenever shoots appear in the fall.

Now what I’m really after is the yellow form of this plant... Anyone?
