Christmas .....

We will suspend sending mail orders from Wednesday 4th December, starting again, weather permitting,  from 6th January 2025. Orders placed after Wednesday 27th November will be sent after Christmas. Most of our plants are now under cover, dormant and not looking at their summer best, so we encourage you to look at our eGift Vouchers as an alternative.

Beautiful, almond-scented creamy-white flowers are held above narrow foliage from mid-late summer. This bulbous plant from South Africa likes a sunny spot in very free draining soil. If growing in a pot move the pot under cover in winter so it can be kept on the dry side
