Description
Though the taxon is much confused in the literature, this species, belonging to the tazetta section, is currently regarded both as a valid species and a correct name.
Blue glaucous leaves and spikes with several strongly fragrant flowers with wide white or cream petals and a short white or pale yellow corona (the plants shown are our own, exact stock).
This follows a Mediterranean cycle and the wintergreen foliage is sensitive to freezing, but a nip of frost will do no harm and thus far, we have not suffered losses growing it outside, unheated, potted in a sand plunge (in a well-drained, loam-based compost).
