A stunning selection of this by itself beautiful species, with thick leaves edged with a broad creamy-white margin. Large pale yellow flowers evenly spotted with small dots. Large plants in 4" pots.

A most worthy Toadlily species and especially so in this uncommon selection. Compact and chunky to less than a foot tall, this has a low center of gravity so despite the weight of the large soft yellow flowers, no staking required! This deviates from the typical species by having a distinct creamy margin to the leaves. I'll take mine with cream, please.
