Dierama argyreum Seeds

Dierama argyreum

This is a rare, smallish species from the African mountains displaying ivory white pendulous flowers which, uniquely, open from pale sulphur yellow buds, a new colour-break in this genus. This choice plant will grow best in well-drained rich soil in a sheltered spot.

Cover with compost or grit 5mm deep. Keep moist in a cool, covered light spot outside. No heat is needed. These are often spring germinators. Grow on seedlings in 3 pots, and then plant out in good garden soil.
