Tigridia are bulbous perennial plants with slender lance-shaped foliage and colourful open-mouthed blooms with gorgeous contrasting central markings. Tigridia are best suited to flower beds and borders within a city or courtyard garden. Alternatively, they are ideal for container planting. You can expect to see Tigridia grow to an approximate height of 1-1.5m (3-5’) and a spread of 10cm (4”).
Tigridia are best planted in well-drained soil of loam or sand within an acidic, alkaline or neutral PH balance. Tigridia thrive in a position of full sun. When planting, make sure you dig a hole that is 4 inches deep, and 4 inches apart. Plant in masses to create a gorgeous and colourful display.
In colder regions, lift your plants from the ground after flowering and overwinter. Tigridia are tender and so will not tolerate cold conditions. Ensure your Tigridia are kept dry when they are dormant and repot them during the spring. Water well throughout active growth especially during periods of drought.
It is possible to propagate Tigridia by seed sown during spring or alternatively by separating offsets when dormant.
