The bulbs flower during September at Leopoort Nursery near Oudtshoorn
The flower colour varies depending on the locality, sometimes differing quite significantly within the space of a few kilometres. Certain forms can be nondescript, usually in monotone shades of pale yellow, dull white or a pale dusky pink.
Plants should be available for sale from 2017/2018 on Plant Auction or on a list.
