Lapeirousia pyramidalis ssp regalis
Lapeirousia
Description
Lapeirousia pyramidalis ssp regalis is a striking cormous plant known for its regal flower spikes and vibrant blooms. This subspecies is distinguished by its exceptionally showy flowers and sturdy growth habit. The plant features linear, grass-like leaves that create a neat base for its upright flower spikes. The flowers are the main attraction, appearing in dense, pyramidal clusters in shades of pink or purple, often with a contrasting darker center. Lapeirousia pyramidalis ssp regalis thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. Ensure it gets plenty of sunshine and well-drained soil. Allowing the soil to dry out between waterings will prevent root rot. Consider adding a light layer of mulch for moisture retention.
