Deep green pinwheel foliage and lots of tiny white flowers on whisper-thin stems - this shamrock is pretty, easy, happy on a sunny windowsill or in the garden. Need some filler around the bottom of a mixed container? Poke in a handful of these bulbs and be prepared to blink at their growth speed. Sweet!
