Hi Rimmer,
that Leucocoryne is quite interesting, it looks like Leucocoryne ixioides but the pics on the PBS site don't have those blue tips to the anthers, though the description says that they can,
cheers

I think the flowers grown in less than ideal light can have alterations in pigments. The PBS images have more profound petal markings.

This pale lavender leucoryene came from Telos as sp. 2.
Seed came from Osmani Baullosa who doesn't sell seed any more..
I found the flower up in the T-5 lights hence the slight burnt petals.
i posted more photos a few days later showing more flowers.

I should be able to have my first flowering of Tecophilaea this year.
I am delighted to feel the perfume which, it seems, is suave and well present.

I think it's time I changed my label on this one. I've always had it as Tristagma sellowianum but I see in the first post in this thread that Rimmer has it as Nothoscordum dialystemon (8 tepals and prostrate leaves up to 2mm wide) and I think he's spot on.
