Simon
very nice
I possess Lapiedra martinezii, I seed of three years, how much I must attend in order to see the flowers?
Sorry for the late reply, Alessandro. My original bulb was bought in 2000- it was not flowering size and took about 4 years to flower the first time. I have never managed to pollinate mine. So I am unsure how long it will take from seed.

Alessandro, I love your photos of Habranthus brachyandrus, and it looks happy in the rain but does the flower open more?

This turns out difficult in the photo, the flower much little and of short duration
