Description:
This very hardy, clumping Tulbaghia has fine blue-grey grass-like foliage striped with cream down its entire length. The effect is a silvery mound which rises to about 30cm in height. Silver Lace is long flowering - from spring all the way through to late autumn (and into winter in warmer zones), so the beautiful pink flowers can be enjoyed nearly year round. Has a strong garlic odour if foliage is bruised. The plant provides a solution for every corner of the garden from mass planting, edging through to a mixed garden bed. It can be used in a wide range of situations from large scale water efficient landscapes through to containers in a small courtyard in full sun.
