Tuberoses (Polianthes) Mixed

Grace your garden with this fragrant mixture. Tuberoses (Polianthes) Mixed is a random mix that may include flowers in yellow, pink, purple or other hues. Enjoy them in your garden or indoors as a cut flower. The fragrance of tuberose has long been used in perfumes to provide soft middle notes that linger. This seductive aroma has made tuberose one of the most sought-after blooms for fragrant cutting gardens and as a border plant. They attract pollinators, too! Though native to Mexico, tuberose performs very well in sunny northern landscapes. Lovely spikes of soft flowers appear in early summer and retain their beauty and sweet perfume all season long.
