  • Position: full sun
  • Soil: fertile, well-drained soil
  • Rate of growth: average
  • Flowering period: June
  • Flower colour: pale pinkish-purple
  • Hardiness: frost hardy (may need protection in winter)
  • Bulb size: 12/14

    The stalks of the pinkish purple flowers vary in length, so the overall effect of the flower heads, which can grow up to 30cm across, is of a giant star-burst. These appear on compact stems when the foliage is starting to die back in early summer.

  • 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.
