Description
Also known as the Pineapple Lily or King's Flower, 'Aloha Lily Leia' is an early- to late-summer bloomer, making it the perfect choice for late winter and early spring seasonal sales. With minimal input, limited production requirements, extended shelf life (i.e. eight to 10 weeks) and a spectacular display, Aloha Lily Leia also delights growers.
Sporting the essence of the tropics, the naturally compact architecture and bright green foliages of the Aloha Lily Leia are perfectly adorned by four to six spectacular pineapple-shaped spikes hosting hundreds of small hot pink florets and giving off a light coconut fragrance.. Bulbs may be planted early without the worry of frost, as they maintain a hardiness that is able to withstand minimum temperatures of 10 F. Production is ideal in USDA Zones 7 thru 11.
Traditionally well known for being a naturalizing landscape or border plant item, this little beauty is gaining popularity as a potted and cut flower product. Once established, this plant is capable of vigorously returning year-after-year.
