Nerine bowdenii 'Isabel'


Nerine bowdenii 'Isabel' (Nerine bowdenii)

I'm so pleased that the Nerines I planted last spring have flowered. This is one clump out of several along the 'Great Wall'.

I gave up with mine and put the pot in the greenhouse and I have a wonderful bloom like your flowering away unnoticed. They arrive a bit late for a Scottish autumn. They are so beautiful.

Snap! Linda, I have three Nerines bulbs in a fairly shallow terracotta pot ... they have been waterlogged outdoors but after putting them in the GH they are flowering away beautifully ... so it's just me who appreciates them right now ... :o)

Spritz - what's the difference between this one and the bog standard form?

The petals have a faint paler streak along them, Andrew. :-)

Thanks, I can see that now if I look closely. I think I prefer the original type though

Oh well, Andrew, I just chose them because I liked them, and I still do!

Didn't yours survive the winter, Dd?

We had to move our established ones, which set them back, the others were slug bait!!
