Ammocharis coranica – 2 bulbs p-pack

Ammocharis coranica is a true conversation piece. It can grow in a humid and hot climate, but it can also be found atop the mountains of Natal. The temperature range can be 38ºC in summer, but it can also drop to -5ºC in winter. Some shade is a must, as is watering, fertiliser, and decent drainage. It does very well in a 150mm flower pot and needs to be completely buried for the best results. However, it is a forgiving plant and will still produce flowers if left slightly exposed. It produces a low dome of wide, prostrate leaves and then spectacular pink flowers that smell like ripe fruit and many bulbs flower 3-5 times in succession in early to late summer.
