I agree with Steragram, very beautiful. I think it is more attractive than my colchicums.

Steragram It is growing in a free draining compost but not a gravel bed,What you are seeing is the top dressing of small stones i use on the surface most of my troughs and pots this has a variety of uses which I would probably have to write a blog to explain all of them

Is it in a raised bed then or just in the ground?
