Pacific Bulb group says hardy to Zone 5.  Read what they say.  I think we should always try a plant once.   So I kill a plant...nothing new about that but look at what does live here in Tennessee.  nancy

Hi all,

 

I was looking over the spring 2017 Odyssey Perennials catalogue

at www.odysseyperennials.com

and came across this item:

St Bernard's Lily, Anthericum ramosum

It looks very much like something I saw on some backroads in Ireland this past summer.  I had never heard of the genus before and when I checked the picture, it took me back to one of the more enjoyable parts of my trip.  It’s probably not the same plant, but I just had to order it. My old Hortus Third says it’s native to western & southern Europe – not a big hop to Ireland, eh?

So – does anyone on this list grow it or know it?  Anything to tell me about it?

Kitty
