Soil: fertile, well-drained soil
Rate of growth: average
Flowering period: May
Flower colour: pale lavender-pink flushed with green
Other features: excellent cut-flowers
Hardiness: fully hardy
Bulb size: 12+From rounded buds, fringed and ruffled petals unfurl to form elegant and intriguing flowers that make spectacular additions to arrangements when cut. Shades of blush and lipstick pink mix easily with green, and when teamed with dark plum anthers, which only become visible once the flower is fully open, it becomes a truly winning combination.Garden care: In September to December plant bulbs 15-20cm deep and 10-15cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 7-9 bulbs per 30cm sq. After flowering dead-head and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month. Once the foliage has died down naturally lift the bulbs and store in a cool greenhouse.
