(synonymous with Dierama pulcherrimum ‘Snowbells’)
Dierama
Fairy Wand Flower
This spectacular little-known corm comes from South Africa and augments just about any design situation, especially when it can be viewed from below. Surprisingly tough and undeniably enchanting, Fairy Wands withstand coastal winds and fairly low temperatures, while preferring good drainage.
Draped in elegance, numerous arcs of narrow stems carry flaring crepe paper-like snowy-white bells. The nodding pearlescent flowers illuminate long strap-like deep green leaves that form a clumping evergreen base. Well-suited for gravel gardens, borders or raised beds, this spectacular white Dierama can be mixed with ornamental grasses or fellow South African denizens plus other perennials.
Blooms June–August
Size: 4' 0" – 5' 0" high x 4' 0" – 5' 0" wide.
Hardy to zone 7.
