    Plant these in a warm, sheltered spot for the spectacular starburst-like flowers that can grow to 30cm across in early summer. As the flowers age they gradually lose their colour, but they can be kept on the plant until they finally fall apart, or bring them inside and use them in dried flower arrangements. The long, strap shaped foliage appears in early spring, but will usually die back before the plant starts to flower.

  • Garden care: Plant 15cm deep and 35 - 40cm apart so the flowers don't get over-crowded. Make sure the soil does not get too wet or waterlogged and split and divide large clumps in spring or autumn.
