Colchicum bornmuelleri
EmailColchicum bornmuelleri
Bicolor; rose-purple with with centers.
With the springtime good looks of a petunia or violet, the uncommonly pretty blooms of this fall-blooming bulb create a sensation in the last days of September and on into October. Fall-blooming colchicum, such as this new variety, come along at the end of the growing season to give life to newly vacated sites, like front borders, rock gardens or wooded areas. Bornmuelleri is a fantastic bicolor variety with rose-purple, chalice-shaped cup blooms accented by large white centers. We like to see Bornmuelleri alongside Colchicum Waterlily or speciosum Album for a designer-inspired look in the landscape. The bulbs can also be grown indoors in a sunny windowsill. Deer and squirrel resistant.
