Geissorhiza inaequalis Seeds

Geissorhiza is a large genus, 84 species, of small to medium corm bearing plants in the Iridaceae family found in the winter rainfall region of the south and west coasts of southern Africa. Many of them make very handsome container plants and benefit from extra water during growth.

Geissorhiza inaequalis grows to 25cm tall and has lilac to blue-mauve flowers with white centres.  Geissorhiza inaequalis is found on rocky slopes in heavy clay in the winter rainfall areas. It produces large numbers of tiny cormlets around the corm and they flower quickly. Still it is long blooming and tolerant of a lot of rain.
