Rhodohypoxis 'Stella'

A good mid pink with broad tepals and rounded flowers. Brian Mathew says:

"Described as new in the 1959 catalogue of Knockdolian Nursery; it has large rich pink flowers on long stems and it multiplies rapidly. Stella was a friend or Mrs Garnett-Botfield."

'Stella' was entered in the RHS Rhodohypoxis trial (1988-90) but did not receive any award.
