Title: Mystery bulb
Post by: Geri88 on April 22, 2019, 08:39:06 AM

A friend sent me pictures of this plant she has had in her garden for 30 years and would like to identify. According to her, it produces several flowers on the same stem, measure around 40 to 50 cm heigh, and produce bulbils on the stem.
Any ideas?

Thank you! Now I think it might well be Sparaxis bulbifera.
