Lycoris incarnata (Peppermint Spider Lily)

Give your gardening customers a touch of the exotic for their next landscaping project with Peppermint Spider Lily. This rare, new variety of lycoris incarnata is one of the most cold-hardy varieties on the market. So much so that it can be grown in either cooler greenhouses or outdoors in the warmer parts of the country. Cool green, straplike foliage creates a lovely display in borders, feature beds or cutting gardens. The foliage dies out in July, while the gorgeous candy-striped blooms of pink and white emerge in the hot days of August. A wonderful naturalizer throughout the Midwest to Upper South.
