Plant Details:
Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Amaryllidaceae
Plant Description: In the spring, sword-like blue green leaves appear, persisting through the fall. From mid-summer to autumn, robust balls of flowers float above tidy, mounding foliage, looking like lavender-colored bubbles that are ready to pop!
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
