'Hallmark' has 2-tone orange and yellow flowers. Plain species has yellow. But I don't think that is frutescens, the inflorescence is very sparse in that one.ralphrmartin wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 6:18 pm That looks quite a bit different to the Hallmark I have.

I had one that looked very similar to this - it used to seed around all over the place. I may even have it somewhere in the garden. Never had a name for it, though.

Re: Bulbine care guide anyone?
Yes, I meant the growth form too, not just the flower. Mine is a branched shrub but with shorter leaves.Paul in Essex wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 7:29 pm'Hallmark' has 2-tone orange and yellow flowers.
