Sparaxis

Cheerful Harlequin Flowers, known as Sparaxis, put on a colorful show in any garden. Their star-shaped flowers in a rainbow of bright colors are produced on 12 to 18 inch long stems in mid-spring to early summer.

Sparaxis adds plenty of color to the garden. Mix the corms amongst other perennials or annuals in free-form groupings. They're perfect for bulb gardens and rock gardens, too. Because the cut flowers are long-lasting, you'll want plenty of them in your cutting garden. Sparaxis is drought-tolerant, too, so those who live in drought-prone zones or must limit their water use will love them.
