Love your Babiana odorata, just love white flowers
Angie
Your are right white is nice, too.
But I was looking forward to a yellow blue flowers, unfortunately white was not the right colour. But that is the way it is. There is always a suprise in growing plants from seed. Nevertheless I will grow this plant in future - looking forward to the second plantīs blossom colour white or yellow/blue.

The autumn flowering Moraea polystachya has started blooming here.
The first pic was taken in the evening and was not true to colour-way too blue!
With a white card next to the flower it comes out closer to its true colour, a mauve-purple,
cheers

Chris:
This Lachenalia gets a good amount of supplemental light from a metal halide light 6 hours per day.

Lachenalia anguinea - OK, not the most impressive flower but I couldn't be more delighted. This came from Kirstenbosch seed many years ago and it is the one species of Lachenalia I've grown that I've not been able to flower. I've kept it going but the bulbs never seem to reach flowering size. So, at long last...! Also a photo of the foliage earlier in the season, looking a bit tired now.

Lost-label Lachenalia. Any suggestions? It has a look of L mathewsii but the foliage isn't right. Possibly L. pallida but the plants I grow have a much paler flower. Possibly a hybrid seedling (mathewsii/pallida or lilliflora)?
