Pale pink trumpets extend out from the white petals (the ‘perianth’), a soft and pleasant combination, and a little ‘different’ from all their yellow cousins. These do not fit into the other groupings, but are nevertheless perfect for garden use. March-April flowering 12" (30cm), pale pink and yellow.
Planting instructions
Plant them really quite deeply with 5-6” (12-15cm) of soil over the bulb, where it will remain more cool, more moist and safer from activity above them in the summer. Do not be tempted to cut back or tidy the foliage after flowering – this period of replenishment of the bulb's starchy food reserves is critical to future flowering. A liquid feed while starchy leaves are still green will benefit clumps in poorer soil. I would suggest you plant them in distinct groups and not randomly – the effect is generally better. They should clump up from being planted about 4-5" (10-12cm) apart, further apart for more 'relaxed' planting. .
