Eucomis Bicolour
OUT OF STOCK
Also known as the 'pineapple lily' due to its similarity in appearance to the popular fruit, this unusual South African plant will add something unusual to your containers this summer. It will produce flower spikes on stems made up of waxy 1-inch star-shaped pale green blooms edged with maroon and topped with a tuft of bright green leaves. A mass of broad yellow-green foliage will surround the flowers giving your garden an exotic, jungle-like feeling. A holder of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, it makes an extravagant display in patio pots and containers. Flowers July to September. Height 50cm. 14/16cm bulbs are supplied.
