Description: After relaxing, but botanically boring bike ride, I came across these beauties at the bottom of a south facing slope in the plantation. Small patch about 5 meters across in the grass. A thin solid stalk (3mm by 700mm) with two long (500mm) but very thin (3mm) grass like leaves clasping at the base. Strong midrib and thickened edges. The stalk supports several pink flowers (25 mm diameter) contrasting with the long yellow stamens. Some tepals have small brown blotches. Tube long compared with flowers. A/c Manning at end of flowering season.

Description: These flowers took their time to open! Still not open properly by the time I had to leave. Fab crinkly leaves. Think there are only 3 stamens which would make this Iridaceae, and it reminds me of Tritonia lineata from KZN which doesn't occur here. Help...!
