Description
Delivery available 🚚 Worlds largest growing succulent bulb to 12" wide or more that often rests partially above ground and produces 12-18" long by 4-inch wide glaucus blue-green strap-shaped leaves that emerge in late fall and last into the following summer. Instead of forming bulbils as basal offsets this bulb splits dichotomously, forming 2 bulbs for each one and eventually making a large clump. During the summer, the leaves diminish and in late summer into fall emerge tall stalks rising to 3 to 4 feet with tightly clustered, pink-tinged white flower buds that open from the bottom up to expose the star shaped white flowers with yellow centers that produce bird and bee attracting nectar. Plant in full sun to light shade in a soil that is freely draining and sandy soils are best but can be grown in heavier soils if on a slope or mound. It is drought tolerant in coastal California but excepts more regular irrigation when not dormant and tolerates winter temperatures down to 20 to 25 degrees, but best to protect from temperatures below 28° F that can damage foliage and discourage flowering. Gophers reportedly do not eat this plant and in fact early work on it was for its value as a rodenticide. A great plant for the dry garden or used in large container and an excellent long lasting cut flower. Plant in the garden with only the top inch of the bulb above ground level and spaced well enough to allow individual clumps to spread - the recommendation is 18 to 24 inches apart.
