Pat, I've got Sparaxis grandiflora spp. grandiflora. Send me a pm at the end of winter and I'll dig some from the garden for you. I'm envious of that lovely yellow ssp. though, gorgeous colour.

Davey, times to flowering size vary according to growing conditions. The longer they take to reach flowering size the sturdier and healthier the plants are.
