(6-8 part shade/woodland)   2.5mx75cm

A sumptious species with heavily fragrant, greeny white trumpet flowers which have crimson throats. These are over 30cm in length and are carried on talls stems to 2m+. Leaves are olive-green and glossy. A stunning feature plant which is perfectly hardy and should be planted quite deeply. The bulb dies after flowering, leaving several offsets which flower within a year to two. These can be left or lifted and moved to new locations. Also sets seed which germinates readily to produce bulbils, often taking seven years to reach flowering size!  The bulbs we sell are all from cultivated stock, not gathered from the wild, and may not flower in their first year. Prefers a neutral to acid soil.
