Description
Watsonia Pillansii 2.5LT is a striking bulbous perennial known for its upright sword-like foliage and tall spikes of vibrant orange to salmon-pink tubular flowers. It is ideal for borders, cottage gardens, indigenous gardens, and mass plantings, where it creates a bold vertical display and attracts birds and pollinators. Growing to approximately 90–150cm tall and 30–45cm wide, this low-maintenance plant flowers from late spring to summer and makes an excellent cut flower.
Care Guide
Type: Bulbous Perennial
Sunlight: Full Sun
Water: Water regularly during active growth. Once established, water moderately and reduce watering after flowering as the plant becomes dormant.
Spacing: Plant 30–45cm apart for a natural, clump-forming display.
Frost: Frost Hardy. Established corms tolerate frost well, although the foliage may die back in winter before producing fresh growth in spring.
Maintenance: Remove spent flower spikes after blooming and allow the foliage to die back naturally to replenish the corms for the next flowering season.
