Ixia ‘Spotlight’
Ixia 'Spotlight' is an exotic South African iris relative called a wand flower with white blooms with red highlights.
Ixia ‘Spotlight’ has white flowers with red highlights. Wand flowers are exotic South African iris relatives that produce spikes of beautiful flowers in a range of bold colours. Considerable disagreement exists online as to hardiness but it seems that bulbs should be hardy in free-draining soils in zone 8 and, if mulched, in zone 7. In colder regions grow in a container and bring into a frost free location for winter.
