Two pustulated leaves appear from a bulb in autumn after rain, wet again in autumn. By mid-winter, a scented white shaving-brush flowers sits between them. A pool of sweet liquid attracts gerbils in their native South Africa. Their leaves die down in spring. Bright light, shelterd or indoors. Keep dry in summer, try parking them under a shrub, or behind the shed. No frost. Well drained media.  5cm. These plants are four years old. Flowering next year hopefully.
