Ornithogalum thyrsoides - Potted Plant

Chincherinchee

Commonly known as Chincherinchee, this amazing plant is grown for its spikes of white flowers in summer. The showy blooms are produced over several weeks off sturdy stems that can rise 50 cm above the lush, green foliage. This bulbous perennial typically grows to 30 cm tall and 15 cm wide, performing best when positioned in full sun on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of short periods of dry, frost, cool climates, and will die back during these times to regrow when conditions start to warm. Chincherinchee is commonly included in cottage gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, or used in border plantings. A mass planting is a must with this variety with plants spaced 8-10 cm apart.
