A touch of sunshine and there we are.

C. pillansii showing promise.

C. obcordellum v. rolfii, I almost gave up on this several times over the year as it definitely looked like its clogs were well and truly popped. Finally the old skin peels and there it is, refreshed.

Nice to see all three C. praesectum flowers open at once.

The unopened C. pillansii bloom is teasing us with just a hint of pink.

Fred, your C. obcordellum v. rolfii leaves have an interesting texture to them, they look like raisins.

On the other hand this C. tantillum ssp. eenkokerense has sneaked out a bud unnoticed.
