I have T.capensis since very long time ( bought from P.Nijssen ) ...but yesterday I have realized that my plant is wrong named . I suppose this since many years because T.capensis is wintergrowing and my plant is more or less evergreen and it is flowering in summer ....
Yesterday I have found in the web some good pics of true T.capensis and there is a big difference in the flower ( capensis has a very dissectet corona ) ..so I suppose that my plant is T.leucantha ( or a hybrid )
The problem with Tulbaghia is that so many are missnamed !

My hope was to find a member from here in Europe who grows T.dregeana for swap or buying ...so it is much easier and it is not nessecary to change hemispheres

Post by: bulborum on July 21, 2012, 06:36:04 PM: The two best growers I knew with a big collection
are sins over ten years retired

because they sold the nursery
to people with a much smaller interest for the collections
No idea what happened with there collections

but maybe with the plantfinder
