fermi de Sousa:
Hi Paul (Flowers),
thanks for the moraea pics.
Just be careful with M. setifolia if it sets seed for you - it has a habit of turning up in other pots!
Moraea polystachya is just starting here but we'll have to wait a few months for the spring flowering types,
cheers
fermi

Maggi - thanks for article link - fascinating! All my lurida are variations on a yellow/black/cream theme and all equally stinky
Diane Whitehead:
There are certainly a lot of Moraeas.
I haven't had flowers yet, just incredibly long leaves on pendula, setifolia, spathulata and tripetala.
MarcR:
Dianne,
These should all be flowering by now, especially the setosa.
You could be giving them too much nitrogen. Try withholding nitrogen fertilizers and you might try light application of 0-10-10.
Véronique Macrelle:
this Moraea elegans - chocolate scented ::) tempts me if it ends up in the SRGC 2024/2025 exchange.
sometimes it takes 2 or 3 years before they germinate? as I leave the seedling pots in the greenhouse where it freezes, that explains my failures in this genus.
