Ipheion – Spring Starflowers

Robust and hardy, Ipheion (Spring Starflower) are small bulbous perennials with lovely star-shaped, sweet violet scented flowers borne on long slender scapes in mid to late spring. Blooming for up to 8 weeks, the dainty blossoms rise atop a cushion of narrow, pale, delicate and grass-like leaves. Regarded to be one of the easiest bulbs to grow, Spring Starflowers are best massed in sweeping drifts in lawns, planted under shrubs, along walks or paths, or in rockeries where these charming beauties can be easily admired.
