Nerine undulata coll. Ecca Pass

Nerine

Plant Type:

BULBS

Nerine undulata (collected Ecca Pass, ex: Ellen Hornig) – Crinkly soft pink petals on this late summer blooming Nerine. Open, domed inflorescence sets atop stalks from 10 to 12 inches tall. These produce from bulbils fairly quickly and where they can be grown outdoors will make a statement sooner. 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.
