Nectaroscordum Siculum – Potted Bulbs | 9cm Pot (1 Per Pot)

Elegant, exotic-looking bulbous perennial . Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: any moderately fertile, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: May to June Hardiness: fully hardy A really unusual ornamental onion, with an umbrella of hanging, bell-shaped, creamy-green flowers flushed with lilac on stiff stems in May and June. This tall, exotic-looking, bulbous perennial will add vertical interest in a sunny, well-drained border and thrives in partial shade, too. As the flowers fade, they turn upright to form curious, shuttlecock-like seedheads that extend the season of interest and add a twist to flower arrangements. Garden care: Avoid excessive moisture from late summer when they become dormant. Once established, larger clumps can be lifted and divided in autumn or spring.
