This powder-blue Moraea species pops up all over the place and, I have no idea what its scientific name is!  :)
Hi Rogan,
fabulous stuff! You planning on opening a B&B? You'd get plenty of takers from here ;D
I love them all, especially the gladdies, but that moraea is intriguing, the colour is so beautiful - it looks like M. tripetala but it is slightly different to pics on the PBS wiki http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/MoraeaSpeciesNine#tripetala

Fermi:

Yes L. reflexa.

The flowers never seem to make up fully up for the base.

Thanks, Arnold,
as this is a seedling which came up in a mixed bulb bed I never remember to label it!
This Moraea is a form of Moraea tripetala which is apparently a widely variable group so is under revision into new species and subspecies. From what I can make out it will be within the M.tripetala range of subspecies!

Eucomis bicolor is really wonderfull this year.  When I started to grow these (very long time ago) I remember them to be rather small plants, much smaller than my Eucomis Comosa.  But every year they seem to get bigger when in leaf and this year is really record breaking as to the size and height of the plants and they now outperform my bicolors in size of the leaves.

You may notice some non-Eucomis leaves on the pics, just weedy Oxalis Deppei and Amorphophalus Venosum that I get everywhere because I reuse the old potting soil when transplanting my bulbs
