A striking and elegant bulbous perennial, Pancratium illyricum brings a touch of Mediterranean beauty to the garden with its fragrant, white, lily-like flowers. Native to the rocky hillsides and coastal regions of the western Balkans and islands of the western Mediterranean—including Sardinia and Corsica—this hardy species thrives in well-drained soils and sunny locations.
In late spring to early summer, it sends up slender stems topped with clusters of starry white flowers, each with a delicate, daffodil-like corona. The narrow, gray-green leaves form a handsome clump that dies back in summer, reemerging in fall or early spring.
I got this from one of the most inspirational rock gardeners Corvallis’, Loren Russell. His plant knowledge is deep and he knows the native plants of Oregon like no one else. This is a super choice bulb from his garden collection.
Shipped as Potted plants, in growth, so unfortunately not available for international shipping.
