Much larger than most Nerine species like N. bowdenii and N. sarniensis, this bulb, native to the summer rainfall areas of South Africa, produces a show-stopping flower head, atop a particularly impressive peduncle. &nbsp;Aside from its pedunculated endowment, below you can see that this tender bulb is growing in a vary large pot, which is prefers since it likes a deep root run. Not a houseplant, but sturdy enough for a cold northern greenhouse, they prefer hot summer temperatures and a bone-dry winter rest. Bulbs are planted with their necks out of the soil, and while in growth, it prefer lots of fresh rain water.<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"265\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gardern.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/DSC0151.jpg?resize=400%2C265&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"400\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;PEDUNCLE = A stalk supporting an inflorescence.<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gardern.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/DSC0139.jpg?resize=424%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"424\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">Baby Lydia and our Nerine falcata<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;It takes high summer temperatures in order to get this rare Nerine species to bloom, but alas, we had our hot, dry summer.
