Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Forest lily (Veltheimia bracteata) is a South African bulb perfect as a pot specimen and easy houseplant. It has mid to deep green, shiny and wavy foliage that is topped with naked stems rising into torches of rich pink, light pink, or yellow tubular flow
Ebony Conebush is a sport from the popular and tough L. 'Safari Sunset' and exhibits the same garden vigor. Although a little slow to establish, growth powers on after a season in the ground or fast in a container. Contrast against a light-colored wall or plant for a dramatic effect. An excellent cut flower.
