Sorry pictures a bit blurred, but it is a bulb and grows quite weak straggly leaves (grassy looking) long red tubular bell shaped flowers, red with creamy white tip curled at edges it does not open out but stays more or less this shape. It is very hit and miss as to whether it flowers or not, I seem to recall it belonging to the fritillaria species, but I am not certain.

I reckon it's Dicheleostemma Oliveoil.

Dichelostemma ida-maia, its a corm? dont over water it.

I don't know that one. How interesting! :-)

Very distinctive! As an honest soul I can't say that I have come across this one before either though it does remind me of another group.....the name of which escapes me Lol!!

Nice plant.

Ok, if we're 'fessing up - I was blissfully unaware of this too until a week or two ago when Plantaholic posted up a photograph of his causing me to seek out a supplier!

I have just found where I learnt about it Fractal and Spritz - I put the name in search box and it was Andrew back in May.

Typical! Anything unusual is often Andrew's. lol.

Ha Ha Ha

Thank you everyone for your replies - I shall never remember that name.
