Hesperantha vaginata
Hesperantha
Description
Hesperantha vaginata is a South African perennial that is known for its late-season blooms and fragrant flowers. It forms clumps of grass-like foliage and produces spikes of star-shaped flowers. The flowers are typically white or pale pink and bloom in late summer or early autumn, adding color to the garden when many other plants have finished flowering. This plant enjoys full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-draining soil. It's relatively easy to grow and can thrive in a variety of conditions. Hesperantha vaginata can be planted in spring or autumn. Deadheading the spent flower stalks can encourage further blooming. This plant is a great choice for adding color and fragrance to borders or cottage gardens. It also attracts butterflies.
