Nerine undulata coll. Beford, East Cape

Nerine

Plant Type:

BULBS

Nerine undulata (collected Bedford, East Cape, ex: Ellen Hornig) – Later to rise that the form form from Ecca Pass. Crinkly soft pink petals on this late summer blooming Nerine. Anomolous or not this form has flowered for us in a cool greenhouse in January, February into March, just lovely in winter. The open, domed flower array setting atop stalks from 10 to 12 inches tall. These produce from bulbils fairly quickly. As with all the Nerines we offer summer moisture is a good thing within reason as long as bulbs are planted in a well-draining mix. Drier winter conidtion is advised. The addition of silica when planting may be helpful. Winter dry is essential. We have found all of our Nerine fairly easy-going. Established pot grown bulb from offset.
