Wow, that's fast, Rimmer!
I love seeing our Aussie plants grown overseas! Especially the bulbs as we have so few,
cheers

Since these do so well here, I am looking to find Calostemma luteum (the Garland Lily).

I'll ask seeds of this one for sure from Seedex.
This maybe not the right place to ask, but because I know you also had seedlings - did your Allium cupuliferum went dormant? I don't want to start scratching in the pot...

Few last blooms on Lilium rosthornii. Similar to Lilium henryi but shorter, has narrower foliage and very narrow seed capsules.

Panacratum parvaflora aka Vagaria parviflora bloming now with no leaves.

This looks like an albuca or thog. Maybe it is the missing link.
