Discover the tall Ornithogalum Saundersiae
Ornithogalum Saundersiae, also known as 'bird's milk' is a treasure in the world of flower bulbs. This plant is loved for its long-blooming and striking white flowers on long stems.
Species and origin of Ornithogalum Saundersiae
This species originated in South Africa and is part of the Asparagaceae family. There are several species within the genus Ornithogalum, but Saundersiae stands out with its large, white flowers on long green stems. Ornithogalum Saundersiae was discovered in 1894 and named after Saunderson, who had sent the bulbs to England at the time.
Unique features
Ornithogalum Saundersiae is special for its long flowering period, flowering from June to October and power and doing well in both dry and wet soil. The plant forms a clump of tight, dark green leaves from which the long stems grow. At the end of the stem, many star-like flowers appear in clusters. They are white in colour with a dark center. The flowers grow in the shape of a pyramid, spherical. The plant grows about 100 cm tall.
Plants and care
Plant these bulbs, in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Plant in spring or autumn, about 5-10 cm deep, spaced about 15 cm apart. Ornithogalum Saundersiae needs regular watering, but make sure the soil can dry out between waterings, as it does not like wet feet.
Tips for healthy growth
Although Ornithogalum Saundersiae is not demanding, it is important to protect them from severe frosts. Warmer winters they will survive, but in the event of a harsh winter, it is best to dig the bulbs out at the end of autumn and overwinter them in a dry, frost-free place.
