Congratulations on giving this plant life in Europe Hans - it's gorgeous and, I imagine, minute?  Does it actually come from Peru originally?

Thank you Robin and Alessandro  ;)

Robin : yes this plants comes from Peru !

Alessandro : I dont know why they start with flowers now - they lost her leaves before some weeks and now they start with a flowerstalk ....maybe a result of Phostrogen fertilizer ?

Stunning Hans, stunning. You know my feeling about bulbous plants. You are making use of a very top class fertiliser with high potassium for the flower and stalk development. It is the best for bulbs. I think it is normal for them to flower without leaves. Have a look here on the second photo. http://www.bulbsociety.org/GALLERY_OF_THE_WORLDS_BULBS/GRAPHICS/Stenomesson/Stenomesson_miniatum/Stenomessonminiatum.html

and here http://www.backyardgardener.com/plantname/pda_4714.html in the first paragraph.

Now I have another new bulb to find !!!

Thanks Heinie  ;)

Yes it is true - if we have one of the bulbs that we search ...so we hunt for the next  ;D
I hope my plant will make any offsets - and shure I have it self pollinatet ;)
