Sparaxis: colourful spectacle for garden and vase
Sparaxis, also known as Harlequin flower, is a colourful feature in any garden or vase. You may never have heard of this bulbous flower, it is also not very common in the gardening vernacular, making it one of our more unique bulb varieties. This flower has a distinctive funnel-shaped flower and cheerfully coloured petals surrounding a striking yellow center. They come in a variety of colours.
Origin and species
Sparaxis is originally from South Africa, where it feels at home in the natural heathlands and mountains. This background explains why Sparaxis is such a sun lover. The Sparaxis mix consists of different colours including pink, orange, red and white which creates a dynamic and vibrant look. Each variety brings its own hue, but all share the charming characteristic of a yellow heart.
Characteristics of the Sparaxis
The Sparaxis grows about 25 centimeters tall, making it perfect for gardeners looking for low flowers. The flowers have a star-like shape with a yellow heart. The leaves are oblong green. Sparaxis has a somewhat wilder look, making it a good choice to add to a prairie border.
Planting and care of Sparaxis Mix
To plant Sparaxis summer bulbs, choose a sunny spot, as they prefer plenty of light. The bulbs do well in borders as well as in pots, making Sparaxis versatile and suitable for different garden styles. Plant them about 5 cm deep and 10 cm apart, so that each bulb has enough space to bloom. Make sure the soil drains well, because although Sparaxis can be thirsty, they don't like 'wet feet'.
Sparaxis, not hardy
Sparaxis bulbs are not hardy, this means they should be removed from the ground before the first frost. Store the bulbs in a dry, frost-free place so that they can be planted again the following season.
Cut flower
Sparaxis is not only a beautiful garden plant, but also a graceful cut flower. Its vibrant colours and elegant shape make (small) bouquets with Sparaxis a cheerful centerpiece in any interior.
With the right care and attention, your Sparaxis will make your garden a party every year. Whether you are a novice gardener or an experienced gardener with green fingers, these special flowers can add a unique touch to your garden.
