My freesia are sprouting these beautiful white and red-yellow flowers in the patio. I just love spring!
From WikiPedia:
Freesia is a genus of 14-16 species of flowering plants in the family Iridaceae, native to Africa. Of the 14 species, 12 are native to Cape Province, South Africa, the remaining two to tropical Africa, one species extending north of the equator to Sudan.
The genus was named in honor of Friedrich Heinrich Theodor Freese (1795-1876), German physician.
