Ipheion 'Alberto Castillo'
Introduced by us, this magnificent form has grey foliage and huge glistening white flowers — a real show stopper. Ipheions are easy in any dry sunny position, clumping up well and producing a succession of flowers all spring. They make excellent edging plants or look superb massed in a pot. Summer dormant. Their leaves smell of onions if bruised but their flowers are strongly honey scented and make excellent cut flowers.
