EUCOMIS
Eucomis are all native to Southern Africa, and their common name of "Pineapple Lilies" coming from their spikes of numerous star-shaped flowers having a crowning tuft of leaves resembling a pineapple.

Loves a sunny spot but will tolerate afternoon shade. Require water once a week during growing but prefers to be dryer during the Autumn. We have found success with only our minimal Summer rain. (FS, FH, DT)
