A moisture loving species from South Africa. This plant has rather tatty foliage due to a shortage of water, it usually has lush pleated leaves.

Large yellow flowers in late summer. It also has the most amazing bright red roots, but they are only visible if it is grown in a pot.

Although there were plenty of seedlings around the place, the string of bad winters seems to have finished them off. Time to start again because it is a fun and easy thing to have in the garden.
