Now here’s a rare & desirable treasure! From South Africa comes this beautiful & SUPER EASY to grow, low maintenance Bulbinella species to 30” tall bearing long-stemmed erect spikes of white flowers opening from pink buds. Opening from the bottom of the inflorescence, the frothy blooms are topped by the remaining densely held buds. So cool! Evergreen, drought & heat tolerant, it’s also not fussy about soil, & will increase by root & seed over time. Good cut flower! I’ve already nabbed mine, so nab yours too before they’re gone!
