Description

This deciduous species, collected in Nepal by Michal in 2007, is perfectly hardy in European climates.

In our garden it withstood -14°C (6.8°F) without flinching. It forms a dense clump of bright green foliage marked by a lighter central line, topped in summer by numerous upright spikes of white star-shaped flowers that appear for over a month.

A very unique plant that strongly resembles the famous houseplant, without being as invasive.
