Bring a dramatic tropical touch to the dampest spots in your garden.
The Swamp Lily is a robust evergreen bulb that forms large clumps of glossy, strap-like green leaves. It naturally thrives in coastal areas and wetland margins, making it an excellent choice for damp spots in your garden. Standing up to two and a half meters tall, this plant brings a dramatic, tropical feel to your outdoor landscape.
Caring for this plant is easy, though it does require a high amount of water and cannot tolerate drought. It grows at a moderate pace in either full sun or partial shade. You can plant it alongside companions like canna lilies, elephant ears, or sweet potato vines.
In the summer, the plant produces tall flower stems topped with fragrant, star-like white flowers. These narrow-petaled blossoms naturally attract bees, butterflies, and moths to your yard. Keep in mind that all parts of this plant are toxic to both humans and pets.
