Also called Vallota Speciosa and Scarborough Lily, this beautifull Amaryllis relative is native to the cape province of South Africa. I have been unable to get these for several years, and am delighted that obtained new bulbs.
This was sold to me as Cyrtanthus Mix. They could be hybrids or selections of Cyranthus Elatus. To me the bulbs look like Cyrtanthus Elatus. In the past I have seen red, white, yellow and pink come from a similar mix. We will be lucky if there are some other rare colors mixed in.
These bulbs are full size and most are making little offsets. The bulbs are perhaps 2 cm wide and 5 cm tall. Can be grown outside in zones 8+, or brought inside for the winter in colder areas. Plant shallowly in well drained soil.
