Eucomis zambesiaca

£8.00

4 in stock

Potsize – 1L

A lovely compact pineapple lily with dwarf apple green strap-like leaves with nice rippled edge. In July, short spikes crowded with pure white starry flowers are produced, each spike topped with an apple green tufty top knot. The display lasts extremely well into September. The foliage collapses at the first frost and the bulbs remain dormant until late Spring. 14″ Southern Africa. Eucomis can be hardy in the garden if planted really deep (5″ ) in really well drained soil and given a thick mulch both to insulate and keep the soil drier. They don’t enjoy winter wet or the slugs that like these conditions. So, if you can’t provide these conditions with surety you can grow them in pots and bring them into the green house, conservatory or garage for Winter. Repot or feed well from early Summer when growth resumes.

Dorset Perennials – plants direct from the heart of Dorset.

At Dorset Perennials you will find a husband and wife team, Dawn and Martin, who have been plantsmen and nurserymen for nearly 25 years. Our nursery, situated in the North of Dorset close to the Somerset border, is full of the plants we love. There’s no overall theme, just an eclectic mix of perennials that, for one reason or another, we consider well worth growing. We have plants for shade, plants for sun, plants for wildlife and a few more just because. In short all the perennials you would ever need to make a garden full of colour throughout the year and full of the plants you need to make it hum with wildlife. We’ve tried to make this website full of inspirational colour and easy to use. The shop page has a nifty plant selector sidebar which can be used to filter our plants by size, colour season and so forth to help you quickly pin down the right plant for a particular spot. We’ve added picture pages showing plant associations to inspire you, or if you need a little advice just give us a call.
