A really bizarre and unusual bulbous perennial. Fleshy fresh mid green leaves in whorls form neat rosettes from which emerge 'Pineapples on sticks' during the summer. These flowers are lime green, each petal delicately edged with reddish purple. Prefers a well drained sunny spot. May need mulching in hard winters. 30cm.
