Fantastic plant. Very low maintenance, flowers for ages. Likes being in a pot or in the ground, but seems to prefer slight shade.
Spectacular long flowering plant for a garden, a terrace or a balcony. It is used in flowerbeds and groups in a garden as well as in parks. Cut flower.
Perennial plant. 80cm. Wide lanceolate leaves. Showy white flowers in loose spikes. Any well-drained soils.
Dig a hole at least two or three times as wide and deep as the root ball. Take out the plant from the container and loosen roots to allow them to spread out in all direction. Cut possible broken roots. Mix the soil extracted with a substrate and fill part of the hole with the mixture obtained. Place the plant in the hole and cover with the remaining mixture. Compact the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.
