Ferraria crispa
A striking and unusual bulbous plant, commonly called the StarfishโฏLily, Ferrariaโฏcrispa boasts wildly fringed, starโshaped blooms in mottled tones of cream, brown, purple and green that appear in late winter to spring. Native to South Africaโs Western and Northern Cape provinces, this fascinating species thrives in dryโsummer, Mediterraneanโtype climates. Each flower is richly patterned and often fragrant (though some forms bear a more pungent scent) making it a conversationโpiece in beds or containers.ย Because it is frostโtender, it works best in Canada in sheltered borders with winter protection or as a container plant that can be lifted or moved for overwintering.
