Brown Bells

Though I've never seen this "Brown Bluebell" before it still looks lovely - & different!

There are plenty of pink or white Bluebells around here, as well as the dark blue ones, (I have some on the balcony!), but no brown ones!

What a delicate little beauty.

This is in the same family as Bluebells, but for warmer areas. The stem is also very long - 60cm.

I looked it up & saw they are from S.Africa.

Most of the Dipcadi species are from SA, but there are 2 from Spain and northern Africa. I found someone with seeds for Dipcadi fulvum that are from Morocco.
