Hans,

Great closeup.  It's often so hard to properly photograph those smaller species.  You've captured it beautifully!

I still thought that laticoma isn't exactly large is it?  Now you have me wondering whether what I grow as laticoma is correct?

So how big are the leaves on yours?  I think mine is definitely incorrect.  Mine is much smaller than that.  Sorry for having commented on it being small at the beginning.... I didn't realise it wasn't.  :-[ :-[

Hans,

No, I have krigei as well (I love the twisted leaves).  Mine looks more like angulata I guess, nothing like 30cm wide in the flowerhead.  I must check up on it after these last couple of wet summers.  I don't recall seeing it this year, so hopefully whatever it actually is is still there. ;D

yes, laticoma is part of the fabulous group of large flowered nerines, really impressive! together with falcata, huttonniae  and i believe also appendiculata.

there is also a white form of laticoma

Nerine gibsonii, a little past it's best here today. This plant was a replacement by a kind friend, for a potful which I thought I had lost in the hard winter two years ago -at around minus 18 C. However some fragments did survive and that pot is increasing though not back to flowering yet.
Nerine platypetala is just showing a scape here too.

I'm envious of the gibsonii.  I had one that turned out not to be gibsonii according to Graham Duncan.  It supposedly originated with maybe Harry Hay?  I can't remember the details.

I have krigei and a narrow-leaf laticoma in bloom.  Also in bloom but not yet photographed (too much rain) are hesseiodes, a dwarf angustifolia, and [filifolia x krigei].
