What a difference a day makes....

And the second picture nicely illustrates the weedy tendencies.

Darren,
my eyes got bluffed when looking to your Habranthus tubispathus. :o

In the first view actually thought of Crocus angustifolius "Cloth of Gold". :o ::) ;D
A bit strange flowering time ??? ::)
Very nice!
Best wishes
Armin

Habranthus tubispathus a weed. I only have four and cant wait until it's a weed. I have just empted two seed pods in to the same pot as the parents. I suppose I should put them in a pot of their own.

really nice--love the colour (the other species shown earlier was lovely too!) and i'm with the others in admiring your class of weed!
this genus is new to me--what's it like in foliage?
