Plant Family: Liliaceae

Plant Description: Clump-forming herbaceous perennial with long, grass-like leaves. Ruffled, soft-pink flowers bloom throughout the summer. Tolerant of many soils, heat and low-water situations.

Maintenance:

Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous

Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
