Nerine bowdenii

Very familiar pale fuchsia-pink flowers, flowering best if something can trap the warmth of the summer sunshine close by, a wall or paved drive maybe? Shallower planting suits them best and they seem to flower even better (but this not ideal long term) when somewhat congested. Their flowering in the same year as planting is sometimes unimpressive but be patient for spectacular early autumn fireworks as the bulbs mature in future years. Supplied as bulbs.
