Dainty little clumps of wispy grass like foliage, 6 tall thin stems of small lavender buds open to pinkish white stars with a big, sweet carnation/clove fragrance from spring to fall. The wonderful scent perfumes the whole greenhouse! This South African bulbous perennial needs very well drained soil and sun to light shade. Seems hardy if dryish to 10 degrees (plant under an eave or in a pot where it can be moved).
