Calydorea coelestina (Bartram's Ixia)

Sun to Part SunZone: 7-10, at least 6" tall Origin: USA

Open House/Web-Only! New crop available 9-16-2010 (syn: Sphenostigma coelestinum) This truly amazing irid is a rare and threatened endemic to a small region in northeastern Florida. The 6" long, green-pleated, iris-like leaves form a small clump. Starting in early summer and continuing into late summer, the clumps are topped with 6" stalks, ending in a huge, 2" deep violet flower. Each flower only remains open until noon, so plant this in a special place where it can be enjoyed early in the day. Although native to bogs and grassy pinelands, we have found this to be extraordinarily easy to grow in a container or in a wide range of garden conditions. We are delighted to offer plants grown from seed of our garden plants. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
