An absolutely beautiful garden plant with a sturdy stem that bears vibrant trumpet shaped white or rose pink flowers.
It has strap-like green leaves but they are very secondary to the superb flowers that bloom in summer.
Each bulb produces one or two leafless, sturdy purple coloured stems around 30–60 cm high. At the top they bear a cluster of two to twelve zygomorphic, funnel-shaped flowers.
The bulbs will eventually multiply and form a clump.
Excellent for mid or rear position of a border.
