Default Haemanthus lanceifolius

Two of my seedlings of this species bloomed for the first time this past summer or fall. These two initial blooms were not very impressive, but the plants probably bloomed a year before they were ready. As more plants mature, I hope to get a better look at the mature form of the plant and flowers. I think this is a fairly rare species of Haemanthus, but not terribly spectacular looking, so far. Flowers are mostly white, bracts light pink.
