Massonia 2011
« on: May 18, 2011, 01:15:55 PM »
...some of our members will be surprised that anybody from the nothern hemishere opens now in May a topic for Massonia ...but that here are my first summergrowing Massonia ( seedlings - 2 years old )  :D

The first is Massonia wittebergensis - a new descriptet species - please read on PBS :
http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/Massonia

The other is ( so far I know ) until now undescriptet - I found only on a website a name :
Massonia jasminiflora ssp. aestivalis n.n.

I hope my seedlings will flower in next year ...and than I will show it again with flowers

Enjoy
Hans

Brian may like being made to work so hard on a puzzle, Hans, but I am pleased you simply showed us the pictures here.... it would have been too much work for my brain!
Very strange little leaves indeed. Always learning something here!
