Bern So Massonia like looking. Very nice.

This plant is a rhizomatous geophyte found in most of tropical Africa. The flower is slightly fragrant. It loves the heat and humidity here in tidewater Virginia, but it does not do well in full sun. It is winter dormant here for six months where it stays inside the house and receives no water. I will be moving them to much larger and deeper pots next year. I will try to get them to set seed for a future BX. Enjoy! Bern Williamsburg, VA Zone 7B (hot and humid) -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
