LACHENALIA pusilla

€6.50
Author: Jacq
Family: Hyacinthaceae
Habitat: South Africa
is a short plant with white flowers that are borne at ground level in a congested raceme. The four to six leaves are produced in a prostrate rosette and may vary in shape from linear to lanceolate and are plain or spotted. The peduncle or main flower stem is very short resulting in flowers opening at ground level. This appearance is probably why the species was at one stage included in the genus Polyxena. Because of its geometry this species is probably best suited to cultivation in pots or raised containers. As the seed matures the peduncle extends raising the seed capsules above the plant to presumably aid in seed dispersal. The flowers have a scent that resembles coconut. It blooms in the fall and is common on sandy flats and slopes in the winter rainfall areas
2 years old seedling with characteristic leaves.
