Hippeastrum Mrs Garfield

hippeastrum reticulatum var stratifolium'miss garfield'

Hybridized by B. S. Williams in Great Britain in 1862. It is a cross between H. reticulatum and H. Defiance...a unique beauty...it blooms in summer and fall. it has beautiful white petals with deep pink veins reticulating. its leaves are dark green  with a creamish white line along the backbone.anoter important thing about this is that it produces a lot of offsets...it is evergreen throughout the year.
