I could use a couple of id's please.
Both were indoors at the botanic gardens in Oxford. The first (red) one is in the warmer inner passageway and was a shrub of about 5 foot or so.
The second was in the cooler outer "porch" area, which whilst fully enclosed is a fair bit cooler. It stood about 6 to 8 inches high.

Thanks for the heads up on the Ipheon! Good call.
Any takers on the first....

Yes, I'm sure the second one is Ipheon . . . sorry, no idea about the red one.

Hi, I think the first one may be a Kennnedia rubicunda, I'm fairly sure the flower is a Kennedia and the above looks closest.

Looks like you've hit the nail on the head there Plantoholic!

The Ipheon does not have to be grown indoors. It will do quite well in the open garden and is readily available.

The second one looks like the bulb Ipheon uniflorum but it rather early for it yet.
