Hi Paul, yes it is still solid, I give it a squeeze every so often 
Patience isn't something I have, I am terrible.

According to Kew, 
http://www.kew.org/search/search?q=&sitesearch-term=ext_kew&output=xml_no_dtd&client=kew_website_frontend&&proxystylesheet=kew_website_frontend , 
the correct spelling is "Boophone."  Other sites, like TROPICOS, http://www.tropicos.org/ , list both spellings, which just means that both versions were validly published at some time or other.  We all know what we mean with either spelling.

The name Boophane was changed to Boophone some time ago.

Beating a dead horse but Boophane is a synonym for Boophone.  Boophone was used first in description in 1821, following shortly after Boophone was Boophane in 1825, both were obviously names for the same genus of plants.
