Very nice Alessandro.  Do you grow them in your garden or in pots?

I just love Cyrtanthus.
I have several species myself...

Alessandro,

Nice to see this species.  I have seedlings of a complex hybrid that I've posted pics of previously here on the forums.  Seeing your pic of this species I can see where some of the shape came from.  Very nice species by the look of it.  Congrats on flowering it.
Cheers.
