    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Blanco' version of Starflower! Naturalizing bulbous perennial with grassy foliage, 3-6" tall, with plenty of fragrant flowers April and May. Great follower for narcissus and species tulips. Flowers resemble porcelain with darker veining setting off the form. Sun to part shade, summer dry preferred (tolt of irrigation in fast draining soil); easy to grow.
