Ixia

Ixia, also known as African Corn Lily, produces star-shaped flowers in a rainbow of various colors on 18" long wiry stems in mid-spring. The strap-live leaves are quite handsome. You can plant them in spring anywhere in the garden or in containers. Cut flowers are long-lasting. Fragrance is pleasant but discrete, sort of like the vegetable flowers in your garden. Ixia is ideal for bee and butterfly gardens.
