The following pages form just part of what is a very time consuming and involved study of  the genus Tulbaghia within this 'living collection' .

There is also no descrimination between either species or horticultural forms
because the information has been gathered for both BOTANICAL and
HORTICULTURAL use.

These pages are by no means complete and work is undertaken each season to
record more and more data so it can be uploaded and shared.

This is a private and unfunded study and is being done purely out of ones devotion and interest in this genus of plants.

Botanists reading this must note that all these plants are grown and recorded
'within a garden environment and the details provided are therefore 'ex-situ' records. Whilst every care is taken to grow these plants in a correct manner, changes in both

1.   Tulbaghia violacea x capensis CGV1970
2.   Tulbaghia coddii
3.   Tulbaghia cominsii x violacea 'Fairy Star'
4.   Tulbahia cominsii x (violacea 'Silver Lace')
5.   Tulbaghia cfr. leucantha
6.   Tulbaghia galpinii
7.   Tulbaghia simmleri 'Alba'
8.   Tulbaghia violacea var. maritima
9.   Tulbaghia violacea 'Silver Lace'
10. Tulbaghia violacea x natalensis

Many taxonomic problems still exist with the nomenclature of this genus, however, this is for professional botanist to agree.

There are though observations that I have made in comparing the botanical data
collected here with the monographs previously written by Dr. C. Vosa and
Dr. R.B.Burbidge.

Data collected early in the flowering season was found to differ from previously
recorded data by the aforementioned authors.

The reason for this was found to be climatical and the collection of comparative data seemed dependant on collecting data later in the flowering season when the
sunshine levels and temperatures are closer to those where the specimens are found 'in-situ'. This is especially noted where the pigmentation of any floral part
was a key to the recognition of any species.

To conclude, I must add that the data provided here has been collected during or
towards the end of the flowering period, using mature specimens, when the weather is warmer, and after a prolonged spell of sunshine.
