-- 作者: DJL Boophone disticha is a very widespread species native to Namibia, Zimbabwe, Kenya and finds its centre of occurrence in the Republic of South Africa. This species varies considerably due to geographic and climatic variations. The genus Boophone comprises 3 species, namely: B. disticha, B. haemanthoides and B. ernestii-ruschii. The sunk taxon "Boophone pulchra" has been transferred to Brunsvigia pulchra. The above photos were taken during my visits to Namibia and South Africa. These two countries are home to some of the rarest bulb species in the world. I may have seed of Boophone disticha for free distribution towards the end of this year if anyone is interested. Excuse me members I do not have any knowledge of Chinese softwares and therefore can only write in English. However, I can understand Chinese without problem.

Dear DJL
-- 作者: DJL Dear payju, sds, charlot, Like I have said, the photos were taken during my trips to southern Africa. My interests in bulbs (and orchids) have taken me many times to southern Africa and several times to South America. My main focus is bulbs of the family Amaryllidaceace though I grow a wide range of species of other families. As a matter of fact, I have a large collection of bulbs, most of which have been relocated to my second home in Cape Town, South Africa. I am always happy to spare plant materials with other growers. I am member of the International Bulb Society (IBS) and have posted a number of photos and notes of various species to the Bulb Gallery. Members are most welcome to visit the IBS web-site at: http://www.bulbsociety.org (check out such genera as "Hippeastrum sp", "Hessea", "Brunsvigia" and "Boophane", I was under the name of Dennis Tsang). Charlot, thanks for posting the beautiful picture of Ledebouria crispa which is definitely a nice little species. If there is any species you are looking for, please let me know, perhaps I may have spare bulbs for you. By the way, I shall be going to southern Africa (South Africa, Botswana and Namibia) in November/December for one month, looking for a couple of rare amaryllids - Amaryllis paradiscola and Haemanthus avasmontanus. I have been to the habitats before but had no luck locating any bulbs (:o(

-- 作者: DJL Dear sds and all, I shall try to learn a Chinese software and see how I progress. In the meantime, I may get someone to write in Chinese on my behalf... DJL
-- 作者: DJL Dear Charlot and friends: As a matter of fact, I came across a wide range of terrestrial orchids on the Drakensberg in South Africa near the Lesotho border. I did take a lot of photos of these orchids and shall have to dig out the files for posting at the Orchid Forum separately. Don't worry Charlot, I shall see what I can get for you when I am travelling around southern Africa in November. I do have a lot of bulbs to give away: Amaryllis belladonna, Brunsvigia orientalis, Brunsvigia josephinae, Boophone disticha, Cyrtanthus, Haemanthus, Hippeastrum puniceum, Crinum, Phaedranassa, Zephyranthes and many, many more.... I have got 2 greenhouses full of bulbs, orchids and a few succulent plants. Consult your requirements and let me know your wish list. Charlot, mind telling me PRIVATELY your supplier of South African bulbs? Bear in mind that some bulb vendors are not really reliable in terms of identity and quality of plants. DJL
-- 作者: charlot 種在盆子裡已經3年的植株
-- 作者: DJL Very nice specimen that looks perfectly healthy to me! In humid climates, Boophone bulbs are vulnerable to fungal attack which will lead to bulb rot. Bulbs should be cultivated in such manner that the entire bulb is sitting on top of soil level to minimise the chance of rotting and to maximise the ornamental value of the bulb itself. The growing medium you use appears to be perfectly well drained. Is it a plastic, terra cotta or clay pot?
-- 作者: charlot It was growing in a clay pot with succulate type potting media and growing together with other summer rain type succulate plants .
-- 作者: DJL How big is your Boophone bulb? Does it go through a dormant period in summer or winter time, or it stays evergreen?
-- 作者: wilson
You make me eye-opener !
-- 作者: DJL Dear Wilson, Charlot and all, I wonder if any of the Boophone species is ever cultivated by anybody in Hong Kong. As far as I know it, Boophone is treated/cultivated as a succulent plant. Wilson, I shall be on a botanical trip to southern Africa and can obtain bulbs if any of your friends are interested. But let me know what price you or your friends are prepared to pay for so that I can check out for suitable bulb size. B. disticha is extremely variable due to wide spread distribution in the wild. Some forms tend to produce wavy foliage like the specimen plant shown in Charlot's photo. Other forms produce very narrow and reed shaped foliage which is probably less ornamental. DJL

Boophone disticha是一个非常广泛的物种土生土长的纳米比亚、津巴布韦、肯尼亚和发现发生的中心在中华的南非。本种差别很大,由于地理及气候变化。

亲爱的Charlot和朋友:
-- 作者: panwei 很好的标本看起来非常健康给我!在潮湿的气候条件下,Boophone灯泡易真菌攻击会导致灯泡应该培养腐烂。灯泡,以至于整个灯泡坐在上面土壤水平最低的腐烂和机会最大化观赏价值的灯泡本身。日益增长的媒介你使用似乎是很好累了。这是一个塑料、地埋cotta或班呢
