PLANTS IN LAST FIVE PICTURES ARE NOT FOR SALE BUT FOR REFERENCE ONLY!
Rare and unusual succulent
SCILLA MARGINATA,
better known as LEDEBOURIA MARGINATA or LEDEBOURIA PAUCIFLORA
Native to South Africa
I am offering here TWO fully established healthy plants with well developed roots
that have been split from an adult, large, strong plant that has been in flower already.
Supplied without pot carefully packed.
Ledebouria takes dry conditions very well (especially this time of year) and will travel this way without problem.
Please note:
You will receive TWO plants very similar to the plants in pictures 1-5.
Plants in pictures 6-10 are for reference only to show you
how LEDEBOURIA grows, spreads and flowers.
They are NOT FOR SALE.
Flowering:
multiple runners grow from the middle of the plant, producing cream-pinkish blooms above foliage.
It grows very bushy, from each new bulb will grow multiple fresh leaves (and later blooms).
This is a great house/ conservatory plant due to its tolerance for cold / hot temperature and low humidity.
Half hardy, in summer can be grown outside.
It will grow in any SUNNY & LIGHT position.
It looks very pretty even without flowers due to its speckled leaves (purple underneath) and
flowers 3- 4 times each year.
Grows and spreads VERY quick and does not need much time or attention.
Adult plants are 12-16 cm in height and are approximately 17-20 cm when in flower.
CARE:
Water sparingly as this plant does not like to be over watered and needs good drainage.
It's best to allow the soil to dry out some between watering.
Keep it dry, colder and darker in the winter
for better flowering, also if you do so, it will spread better in the following spring.
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE BIDDING:
Supplied without pot and SAFELY packed.
Payment within 3 days please.
THE PRICE INCLUDES THE ACTUAL POSTAGE PRICE THAT I WILL PAY FOR THIS ITEM PLUS ALL EBAY FEES.
Thank you!
