Flowering a little earlier than many other African lilies, this evergreen perennial is useful for prolonging the season. The pretty clusters of white flowers, which appear from midsummer will provide a striking feature in the planting scheme. - Garden care: Keep well-watered during the growing season, applying a balanced liquid fertiliser each month from spring until the plant flowers. In cold, exposed areas protect the crown of the plant with a deep, dry winter mulch.
