Sprekelia formosissima

Sprekelia formosissima (Sprekelia formosissima)

The upper petal is a little limp, but hardly surprising when you consider that it did most of its growing in a paper bag!

Why in a paper bag?
Mine has just leaves...does this mean no flower for me this year?

It got forgot about! The one that was potted up has only produced leaves too Alex, so my guess is no flower this year!
