Description

As a Darwin Hybrid, it’s very early to flower (in March with us) and incredibly perennial, still coming up here after well over a decade. It’s also super tall, with huge and spectacular flowers, like an ostrich egg on a stem and finally, look closely and you’ll see that the petals have the finest outline of red, with the softest markings to their outer surface. To celebrate a new growing year, this often fills my first triumphant spring vase.

Care Tips

After flowering leave the foliage to die back naturally if you want to reuse the bulbs.
