Growing at a glance…

Also known as Star of Bethlehem, Ornithogalum flowers in mid-Spring. A perfect pick for growing in beds and borders, or through grassy areas when planted en-masse. Loves lots of sunshine, so position them somewhere that gets plenty of sunlight, but can also withstand dappled or partial shade. Plant them twice their depth in Autumn to see them appear from April to May.
