Gethyllis : The name Gethyllis is thought to come from the Greek gethyon, which means a bulb, onion or species of leek. Like most other plants adapted to temperate climates, is deciduous. Nourished by long, fleshy roots, the bulbs store sufficient reserves to survive the long, dry season in a dormant state but when conditions become favourable they produce leaves. Gethyllis has some 32 winter-growing species with an extensive distribution covering the winter-rainfall area of the southern portion of Namibia and throughout the Cape Province, with the Vanrhynsdorp-Nieuwoudtville region showing the greatest species diversity.

Your Acer and bamboo are much healthier than mine this year.
Lack of precipitation during winter/spring, set ours back a bit.

Maybe I'll move the mondo grass, looks good amongst the canes.
