Nerine Bowdenii (12cm+ Bulbs)
Amaryllidaceae
OUT OF STOCK
Breathe some life back into the waning September borders with Nerine Bowdenii. This exquisite, late flowering specimen is guaranteed to add a delicate flush of colour to the garden at a time when other plants are beginning to fade. Also known as the ?Nerine Lily? due to the shape and form of its blooms, this superb variety produces strap-like foliage and an abundance of vivid pink flowers with curling petals atop slender, surprisingly robust stems. Native to the inhospitable plains of South Africa, Nerine Bowdenii thrives in full sun and freely draining soil, and is as well suited to patio pots and containers as it is to beds and borders. Top size 12cm+ bulbs supplied. Flowers September to October. Height 60cm.

Nerine prefer to be planted in a sunny position, in fertile/well drained soil (with plenty of peat/sharp sand).
Nerines are ideal for potting up and can be introduced to the garden in April. As they are not completely hardy, we recommend to plant in pots, keep in frost-proof place and remove in to the garden in late April. Can be watered freely when growth begins to appear but should be held back when the bulb is dormant.
