Fig.1 E. dregei, Bethelsdorp area
Three plants are in a pot. Each plant develops a typical enation of the species.Eriospermum dregei is characterized by its unique enation as well as the warty tuber. The hairy enation starts as a single, short cylindrical trunk and at the top forms several branches which branch individually a few times.
Several hairs on the enation develop at a point and it is another distinguishing feature, by which you can tell a dubious plant from E. paradoxum.
E. dregei is the most popular species of the genus Eriospermum among plant growers. Though the most sought-after species should be E. paradoxum however, E. dregei is far more available than that species, thus more people have E.dregei plants.
The plants from Bethelsdorp area look just like the type of the species. They are easy-flowering here to some extent as a winter-growing Eriospermum.
They are robust as a enation-bearing Eriospermum but not the robustest. They need full sun under frost-free conditon and moderate watering in growing period.
