An old variety that has deservedly remained a favourite for many people through the years. The buds are pink and green, but the long-lasting double flowers open to a delicate creamy white. The flowers are quite tough and are held on top of sturdy stems late in the season.

Garden Care
In September to December plant bulbs 15-20cm deep and 10-15cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 7-9 bulbs per 30cm sq. After flowering dead-head and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month. Once the foliage has died down naturally lift the bulbs and store in a cool greenhouse.
