Sparaxis, also called Harlequin Flower, boasts jewel toned flowers with bright yellow throats, edged in black. The bloom is reminiscent of the Harlequin's collar, hence the common name!

Happy in full sun, plant it along borders, in a rock garden, or anyplace its bright, unusual flowers can be appreciated. Drought tolerant, water freely during flower growth, but it’s not fussy and will do well with minimal care. Sparaxis are cold hardy to zone 9, and will do well with a deep mulch down to zone 7. In colder zones, grow Sparaxis as an annual, or lift the corms before frost and store in a cool, dry place to be replanted in Spring.
