Description
Serenade your senses with this exquisite new Nerine bowdenii 'Lipstick' – producing a full fanfare of candy-striped trumpet blooms next autumn, you’ll be in for a real treat. There’s no better plant for adding that fresh pop of colour to the late season than fancy and frilly nerines, with their stunning, exotic-looking blooms which parade effortlessly for weeks on end, just as the garden is winding down for winter!
This exciting new nerine variety is one of a kind, with unique white flowers which bear a bright streak of pink along each of its elegant curled-back petals. Just like any other nerine, the white and pink-striped 'Lipstick' is easy to grow, hardy and reliable, rewarding the minimum of fuss with a show that repeats year after year. Give these super plants a sunny spot in a border or container and bring an extra level of luxury to your planting schemes. They’re also a spectacular cut flower too.
