    Another tall Eucomis (24 to 30 inches) great for flower arranging! Medium pink starry flowers clad the thick stem, and bronze-tinted strappy leaves in a rosette form the base; another bronze-tinted rosette of small leaves top the flower spike - its pineapple top-knot. Summer bloomer. Ships when dormant. Minimum temperature: 0 °F
