Unusual Sparaxis, Tritonia and Babiana bulbs

On a recent trip to see our grandson (and his parents and aunt) in Cape Town, the mandatory shopping splurge at the Starke Ayres nursery in Observatory uncovered a whole lot of indigenous bulbs for sale.

I've often planted the "usual" Hadeco Sparaxis and Tritonia offerings, but this is the first time I've seen these:

Sparaxis bulbifera - about 13 tiny bulbs planted in a mix of acid compost, sand, and seedling mix.

Sparaxis multiflora variety multiflora - about 8 bulbs in a mix of sand and seedling mix.

Sparaxis villosa - about 6 bulbs in herb seedling mix.

Sparaxis elegans - 5 bulbs in seedling mix.

Sparaxis multiflora - 6 bulbs in seedling mix.

Tritonia deusta - 5 bulbs in herb seedling mix.

Tritonia crocata - 5 bulbs in seedling mix.

Babiana "Tulbagh" selection - 5 bulbs.

All of these bulbs need to be planted in autumn, so they're planted just in time. Most had already started sprouting and all looked healthy. Where there were more bulbs in the packet than advertised, the extras were comparatively small.

With luck, these will grow, and propagate.

Unknown rose - need help in identifying?

We've owned our house in Grahamstown since 1985, and this rose bush was already well established. The house was built in 1958. Presumably the rose was planted in the 60's or 70's?

It's not a Dufte Wolke, Queen Elizabeth or a Harmonie, all of which I now have planted and flowering -- this pink is quite different, and the petals are fleshy.

I'm not sure if Ludwig's Roses has an identification service? Or anyone else? What information is required to help in an identification? Colours are hard to do consistently in photographs.

Below it in this photo is a Germiston Gold.

Kei Lily - Cyrtanthus sanguineus

We've had a shallow pot of these bulbs in the garden for twenty years or more - completely neglected, and yet they seem to flourish:

The flowers are spectacular.

Didn't know what they were until our neighbour, Eleanor, told us she had one and had been told it was a Kei Lily. I was a bit sceptial, but sure as anything Google confirmed it...

Jacaranda blossoms

Crawling with bees, as usual!

Weekly status of tyre garden - update 17

The past week has had temperatures in the 30s, bright sunshine and zero rain. Things are struggling, and need extra water.

Tomatoes being prolific. These are Moneymakers.

As soon as they ripen, they get attacked by birds, so I'm picking them when they're pink rather than red. They seem to go red quite quickly after picking. There are tons coming up.

Agapanthus

Doing nicely.

White guava

Buds and flowers in profusion.

Update 2016/1/28:

Lots of fruit.

Update 2016/02/04:

Bigger fruit... to the extent that the somewhat lopsided tree might collapse.

Update 2016/03/13:

Flame Lily

Gloriosa Superba

Tigridia

The showiest flowers ever... but they only last a day. Quite a few - 3 to 4 - on each plant.
