Bright red flowers.
Although the best know species bowdenii (which we offer in the Spring) is the only hardy Nerine, Red Pimpernel may be worth trying in a sunny, well drained spot outdoors in very mild parts of the UK. Elsewhere they are ideal for a cool greenhouse or conservatory, planted singly in 4″ or 5″ pots of free-draining, very gritty compost the the neck of the bulbs exposed.
Flowering time: October-November
Height: 60cm.
