Dierama medium is an angel’s fishing rod, also called lilac hairbell, with wiry grass-like stems to two feet tall that produce lovely bell-shaped flowers in shades of lavender and purple. The stems move gracefully in the slightest breeze. Beautiful on the edge, corner or possibly at a turning point in a path so you can stop and enjoy! Likes a sunny spot with good drainage and extra summer moisture. Our bulbs are adult blooming size as of 2023 though Dierama can resent disturbance and may take a year or two to re-establish before they resume blooming.
