Sprekelia

Sprekelia formosissima, or Jacobean Lily, is a charming perennial that produces striking, deep-red, orchid-like flowers on slender stems in late spring or early summer. This exotic plant comes from Mexico and has a sweet fragrance that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. Sprekelia formosissima bulbs should be planted just below ground level in a sunny and sheltered place, with some protection from strong winds. They like a moist but well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. They can only be over-wintered outdoors in mild districts and need a protective layer of mulch or bracken in winter. Sprekelia formosissima bulbs are ideal for adding colour and charm to rockeries, borders, or containers.

    The bulbs supplied by Bloms cost the most, gave the most flowers (26), were of top quality and had the potential of doubling themselves next year. The trials indicated that you get what you pay for.
