Watsonia vanderspuyae |
 |
|
Bold species from mountainous areas of South Africa, where it is often found growing in crevices. Broad leaves, bright red flower tubes. Reportedly not an enthusiastic bloomer, sometimes skipping a year, at least in the wild. We'll see how it behaves in our garden, if our seedlings survive summer's heat and winter's cold. Bulb goes dormant in summer, after blooming in spring.
