& Eucomis hybrids Mixed Pineapple Lily 1 Packet

Indulge in the exotic allure of the Pineapple Lily mix, an easy-care ensemble that promises delightful pineapple-like blooms with minimal fuss. This mix offers a captivating array of foliage and flower colours, creating an architectural spectacle in your garden year after year. As hardy perennials, these plants develop into bulbs after 3 or 4 years, flourishing beautifully in sunny borders or adorning patio pots with their unique charm. Standing at a height of 60cm (24in) with a spread of 30cm (12in), they bring a touch of tropical elegance to any outdoor space. Start by sowing seeds at any time of the year in pots or trays of moist seed compost, covering them lightly with a sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place them in a propagator or seal inside a polythene bag at a temperature of 20-25°C (68-77°F). Keep the compost surface moist and provide light, as this aids germination, which typically takes 14-30 days. Once germinated, transfer seedlings into 7. 5cm (3”) pots and nurture them until well-established. Before planting outdoors in a light, well-drained soil under full sun, acclimatize the seedlings to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days. During the growing season, ensure regular feeding and watering to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms. While Eucomis is generally hardy, it appreciates some winter protection. Apply a dry mulch to borders and consider moving containers to a sheltered spot or cold greenhouse to safeguard these exquisite plants during colder months.. Supplied as 1x Packet of 50 Seeds.
