The lavender purple, cup-shaped flowers have a white fringe to each petal, which means they combine well with all shades of puple, lilac-pink or white. The flowers are quite long lasting and are good for adding to cut arrangements.Garden care: In September to December plant bulbs 15-20cm deep and 10-15cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 7-9 bulbs per 30cm sq. After flowering dead-head and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month. Once the foliage has died down naturally lift the bulbs and store in a cool greenhouse.
