Sparganifolia are very similar to alismatifolia but much more petite with smaller inflorescence and narrower leaves. The flowers have a rounded shape and the color is a deep frosted pink with wonderful green tips. These smaller versions of the Siam Tulip are delightful planted in groups or massed in large containers.
