Bowiea

For nearly two months my Bowiea was just a bulb. No growth. In the past before one section died back another was sprouting.

This morning the bulb looked like this–

The Bowiea flowers are quite small, but lovely.

Removed the wilted leaves. The existing leaf appears a bit damaged and dehydrated. Watered it this morning to see if it will perk up. Wait to see if it will recover.
