Opened up yesterday ---Solaria ,(Syn Gethyum ),atropurpureum--first flowering from seed sown Jan 2008.

Seems okay outside all year round in this climate.

Interestingly from the pics i have seen i would have expected the flowers to have been on longish stems --maybe that may happen in due course .

Not a large bloom however i love the chocolate  Tongue colour --the smell is another thing  Grin  wet musky dog !......

Cheers Dave.

That's a special plant, Dave! I wouldn't say it leaps to the eye but it has a modest kind of charm! I like it Wink

beautiful Dave

I bought a few bulbs last year
they are dormant now
no idea when they flower
but calculating it must be somewhere in March
or with bad luck the year after

I gave a presentation to our local alpine garden group last night Roland .

Had a box full of display plants, including the Solaria, beside me ,framed tight on the floor of the front passenger seat between the laptop and projector --was only a 10 min ride but i had to wind down a window to try and clear the air   Roll Eyes....
I also took a couple of clothes pegs with me and a note warning their use was recommended if viewing the plant at close quarters........ ;  Wink   Grin

Cheers Dave.
