Your nomocharis are beautiful, Claire. You started them with seeds?

Well done, seems they enjoy your climate and skills very much!
With me they needed about 4 years until they showed their first blossom last year. I would have expected a much longer waiting time.

I did not grow these from seed.  I received them as small bulbs.  When I order seeds from the seed exchange, I often end up with Nomocharis finlayorum.  The bees must help them hybridize in the garden.  Nevertheless, the hybrids are lovely, too.
