Flowering Grass

From LoveToKnow Garden

Flowering Grass (Anomatheca) - A. cruenta is a pretty little South African bulb of the Iris order, from 6 to 12 inches high, flowers 1/2 inch across, carmine, crimson, three of the lower segments marked with a dark spot; in loose clusters on slender stems and grass-like leaves. Hardy on warm soils, but in others it should be planted on slopes, in very sandy dry soil, or on warm borders; the bulbs planted rather deep. In many soils it increases rapidly. Syn. Lapeyrousia.
