Hello Roland
I grow it in a pot outside uncovered all year round in a sheltered half shaded position --it might get just a touch of frost overnight then temps reach 8c during the day over winter.
Now that it has flowered it will go into the garden proper or maybe a trough as the plant is only about 30cm in height.  

I understand it grows in nature in the South West area of the Cape, on sandstone slopes --i presume it is no more difficult to grow than Sparaxis grandiflora which you have shown a page back ,as these also come from the same general phytogeographic center.

Let me know if you want me to save some seed.

Cheers Dave.

Really nice and intersting specimens, everyone.

Michael, how big is that Androcrymbium?

Roland, how is it that the flowers are now coming out of green leaves, but apparently, older flowers that are now producing berries have no leaves?
Is the flower that is blooming now only male?
