When paired with lighter varieties, the deep claret colour creates a fresh, modern contrast that stands out in both formal and informal settings.

Hardiness & Overwintering

The bulbs are reliably hardy and do not require lifting for winter. They tolerate cold conditions well, making them a practical choice for low-maintenance garden bulbs.
