Family:  Asphodelaceae
Author:  (Karel.&Kir.)Reg.

Mature Height:  0.6   Mature Width:  
 
Habitat:  Wet sands[74]. Dry sands according to another report[200].



Cultivation Notes:  Prefers a very well drained, very rich, light sandy loam in a warm sunny sheltered position[90, 200]. A covering of sharp sand helps the plant to survive wet winters. Plants can also be mulched overwinter with organic matter in the autumn in order to give them extra protection, but this mulch must be removed in the spring otherwise it might encourage the new growth to rot[200]. Some protection should be given to the young shoots in spring in areas subject to late frosts[200]. Keep plants dry in summer after they have flowered[90]. Plants resent root disturbance and so should be placed in their final positions as soon as possible[200]. Plants require some cold stratification in winter in order to flower well in the following summer[200]. Slugs are very attracted to this plant so some protection must be given.
