Kaffir lilies

A lovely little lily that comes into flower towards the end of Summer !

They are gorgeous and new to me Beryl, love the background too.

If you were to mention the K word here in Sa you go straight to jail!

No wonder I don't know the flower, probably forbidden here 😉

[Beryl Lloyd]

I am sorry as I remember you telling me last year that K was a profoundly insulting and offensive term for a black African and a sufficient grounds for legal actions ! What a shame that this little beauty has the same name - its botanical name is schizostylis coccinea ( I had to google this and will never remember it !! ) @ludswigdiana

Pretty flower and colour and lovely to see them this month as other flowers are over.

[Shutterbug]

@beryl Maybe we could call it SC. I wonder how it came by such a derogatory name. I think that is also the name of a lime.

How pretty, that red contrasts with the grey of the screen walling nicely

[KoalaGardens🐨]

oh that's a little different, really nice!

[Heather]

Such a vibrant red and so striking surrounded by the green leaves and the grey wall. How wonderful to have this blooming at this time of year! Fav
