This juicy-leafed plant is a species that draws the admiration of both newcomers, mystified by its transparent blue foliage, and expert growers, confused by its physical resemblence to many leaf succulents despite being a winter-active, summer-dormant bulb.

It never takes long for the experimenter to fall in love with the transient beauty of these plants from South Africa's Northern Cape, however. There's a reason why so-called "cape bulbs" are often the category that the most detail-obsessed collectors end up focusing on. Maybe we're biased, but there's something about the surprise appearance year after year that makes these plants particularly rewarding.
