EUCHARIS

Eucharis, or Amazon Lily, is a charming perennial that produces clusters of fragrant white flowers with prominent black ovaries on tall stems in late spring or early summer. This exotic plant belongs to the Amaryllis family and has a sweet fragrance that attracts butterflies and bees. Eucharis bulbs should be planted in pots as they need a warm, sheltered place to thrive. They like moist but well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. They need protection from frost in colder areas and can be moved indoors in winter. Eucharis bulbs are ideal for adding colour and fragrance to borders, rockeries, or containers.
