CALayer subclassing

I found a couple threads about CALayer on here, but not my exact problem, so here goes. I'm trying to get my head around subclassing CALayer for drawing into a layer rather than a view. My problem is that I don't see my custom drawing, even though drawInContext: *is* called, according to breakpoint.

@interface MyLayer : CALayer {

}

@end

@implementation MyLayer

-(id) init {
if (self = [super init]) {

}
return self;

}

-(void) drawInContextCGContextRef)ctx {
CGSize size = [self bounds].size;
CGFloat color[] = {1., 0, 0, 1};
CGContextSetStrokeColor(ctx, color);
CGContextSetLineWidth(ctx, 3.0);
CGRect r = CGRectMake(10, 10, size.width - 40, size.height - 30);
CGContextStrokeRect(ctx, r);
}

@end

I have a view-based application project, all I do is this in the ViewController .m:
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
MyLayer* layer = [[MyLayer alloc] init];
[layer setBounds:CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 200)];
[layer setPosition:CGPointMake(100,200)];
layer.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor].CGColor;
NSLog(@"MyLayer bounds: %@", NSStringFromCGRect([layer bounds]));
NSLog(@"MyLayer position: %@", NSStringFromCGPoint([layer position]));
NSLog(@"MyLayer anchorPoint: %@", NSStringFromCGPoint([layer anchorPoint]));

[self.view.layer addSublayer:layer];
[layer setNeedsDisplay];
[layer release];
}

The interesting thing is the background color green is shown! So where's my rect?
