Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Another Nerine cross, this between the coral-pink flowered N. sarniensis and the white N. pudica creating a delicious flower in cheery strawberry pink with a white center. As with others in the genus, these are summer dormant, the flowers emerging "nekked" September - November after which the leaves appear in December and January, remaining through spring. Adapted to dry or wet summers provided good drainage and sun. Should be planted with bulb necks slightly above the ground. Frost hardy to 10F, USDA zone 8, but may lose leaves in the upper teens F. Add mulch for winter protection.
