The other Bulbine species we grow here is also quite
nice, and looks more like a juicy Aloe when not
blooming; Bulbine latifolia. The flower spike is much
more substantial, looking more like Bulbinella
robusta, and the plant is more touchy about growing
conditions as well. I seem to lose half of any group
plantings to rotting out, while the remainder thrive.
Great plant but much more cold tender than Bulbine frutescens.
