Tulbaghia 2018
« on: February 02, 2018, 06:45:35 PM »
Hi all ,

I'm really glad to show here pictures of my self grown Tulbaghia capensis  :D

...because after many years with searching I have now the true T.capensis ( this plant is a wintergrower )
There so many missnamed T.capensis in a lot of collections ...the most are simply T.leucantha

I have grown my plants from seeds in year 2012- one portion was from Cameron Mcmaster ( African Bulbs ) and the other came from a contact from Italy ...his plants are from Dave Fenwick

Now I wait for flowers of my both other winter growing Tulbaghia : T.dregeana + T.alliaceae

Have fun

Maggi ,

Yes - you are right with the color...and also interesting is the deep cut corona ...very different from the other Tulbaghia flwoers

I'm sorry for the quality of the pics ...but the weather is miserable

Still its very nice indeed, sort of elegant

 ;D Sometimes we can be grateful that the forum has no scent button!!   ;)

 Such an innocent looking flower - definitely  luring  in the nose there -  only to reward you with a shock!

These are both Tulbaghia Simmleri - both smell amazing, the white one is bigger in every respect - the fragrance is amazing!

The white one is 'Cheryl Renshaw' and the purple one came from South Africa

This is Tulbaghia Ludwigiana and although Ive had it for a few years its never looked so good. Maybe its the heat and the sunshine this year

I grew this Tulbaghia Dregeana from seed after having read on line how nice it smelt- but it stinks....sort of fritillary.

 It also is supposed to be winter growing but has been pretty much ever green and flowering mid summer.

Still I was very pleased to see it flower

This Cominsii hybrid so floriferous and cute. It seems reluctant to set seed though.

This is a Tulbaghia species (species unknown) which survived our severe winter 2017/2018 unharmed in a sand bed

Thank you David -
montana seems to be logical because species from the Drakensberg mountains are probably the most hardiest ones of a genus.
