Re: Dietes vegatat

Hi Tem

I posted a message back in June concerning this flower

 

<<<<Neomarica

 

several years ago while visiting our daughter in Florida, she and I went shopping for plants. I purchased a Dietes,  vegeta for her.  She is a flower person just not as dedicated.
 
She recently sent me 6 rhizomes???
 
What she describes sounds like a walking iris. She said, "When it finishes flowering the stem bends toward the ground and starts another plant">>>>>

 

I received no replies, so I decided I was wrong and dropped the issue.

 

I'll re-mark the flower correctly. Thanks very much for confirming my guess.
