This South African false scilla forms a small caudex (swollen base) from which emerges 6" arching stalks of purple spotted revolute (curled downward) grey-green leaves. In summer, the cute clumps are topped with short spikes of greyish flowers...a collector plant for the rock garden, where it will reseed. This accession is seed grown from 4,000' elevation at Ellington in the Eastern Cape Province.
