Digiplexis ‘Illumination Flame’

‘Flame’ is almost tropical looking. “Spikes flaming magenta pink with rich cantaloupe orange magenta speckled throats” are borne all the way around 90cm tall stems set over dark rosettes of broad darker green leaves. Digiplexis have done very well here at Lambley in a north facing border although they would be just as happy in a little light shade. Whilst needing regular summer watering they are tough and in our experience problem free. They are frost hardy in most if not all Australian gardens. Last year in our own garden they were in flower from late spring until mid-autumn
