Plant Description

Eucomis zambesiaca is an unusual, dwarf pineapple-lily that is ideally suited as an edging for beds in semi-shade or as a pot plant. The neat, sturdy little flower spike is neatly-packed with white flowers. A rosette of lush wavy leaves give a tropical effect even when not in flower.

Though Eucomis zambesiaca is dormant in winter, it is not necessary to lift the bulbs.
