White with red markings, a hybrid of F. laxa with laxa 'Alba'; this plant is also circulating erroneously as Anomatheca divaricata, which is non-legit, and the implied Laperousia divaricata is completely different. If selfed and grown from seed, plants produced are variable in marking, and the red markings can be smaller and less pronounced.

Photographs of this Freesia taken at the former African Garden in Estover, Plymouth, Devon; once home to the NCCPG National Collection of Freesia Anomatheca Group.
