Brunsvigia radulosa
« on: September 19, 2017, 08:24:48 PM »
My Brunsvigia radulosa flowered in July for the first time after many years. The few resulting seeds
were  stored on a shelf until I noted the germination in this dry and warm place.

That's a fine plant Rudi; congratulations 8)
Did you grow it from seed, and how many years ago?

Very nice indeed! Must have been very satisfying to see it flowering, and to that extent!

Dear friends, many thanks for your kind comments. I bought this plant 2011 as a small
potted plant from a Czech nurseryman and was amazed by the first flower this year.

Always something new to learn about seeds and their germination requirements!

Here is the result of sowing these seeds, but I consider to give these
seedlings to a younger rockgardener ...
