Description: BackgroundBrunsvigia is a great South African genus of (usually) enormous bulb plants. All the species I grow are summer-dormant, and winter-active. During the summer months you have an empty patch of ground or uninteresting looking pot. But then during the winter you have spectacular, blue-grey leaves.This is usually not a small plant. It needs room. However, this listing is for a dwarfed species... Oh gosh, when it flowers, you have an AMAZING show. The flower stalk is huge, tall, and surmounted by a spangle of flowers that looks absolutely like a big firework wowing the crowd. Do a google search on it to see what it looks like.I'll be honest...none of my plants are flowering size yet...I figure I'm a year from that happy season. But while I'm growing up my plants, I couldn't help germinate some more seeds and I've got a few spares from that batch here. I have been growing this batch of seeds for about four years, so if you want to grow this plant too, you can, and shave four years off the time to flowering.I don't know how long it will take to get them to flower.I am going to ship the plants mostly bare-root, knocked out of the pot. I'll send a brief care sheet with the plant, but they're quite easy. During the summer, they want it dry, and during the winter they love moisture, root room, sunlight, and fertilizer. I would protect them from a killing winter frost. The sale photos are of the exact plants you are buying. The information about the plant’s dimensions, and the photographs, were all generated when I listed them. I am listing several plants. They are the only ones I will have for sale this season. Each sale is for a single plant. On Shipping The plants will be shipped bare root--knocked out of the pot, but not cleaned fastidiously. Please ensure that your shipping address will not expose the boxed plant to extreme conditions. Mailboxes in full sun can become dangerously hot, and I will ship to cold climates at your risk. I can include a heat pack for $3--you can buy a heat pack from me via one of my other listings. If you want one, contact me immediately upon paying for the plant--sometimes I box and ship plants within an hour of receiving payment. (I don't see a heat pack is really needed.)Please ensure that your shipping address will not expose the boxed plant to extreme conditions. Mailboxes in full sun can become dangerously hot, and I will ship to cold climates at your risk. This specimen should be considered reasonably pest-free. Note, however, as with all plants, you should take suitable pest precautions when you incorporate them into your collection. Just before I ship the plant, I'll give it a careful lookover, to make sure it is free of bugs. If I find any problems with the plant, I'll contact you before shipping the plant, and we can discuss what to do. I do not ship internationally, so non-USA buyers, thank you for not buying. If there are problems with the plant when it arrives, please discuss it with me so I can make things right with you (instead of giving my eBay account a bad review). I work to fulfill orders as soon as I can. If you purchase multiple items from me, I will combine shipping charges, but it is a good idea to send me a note so I catch the fact that you have multiple orders from me. As long as you notify me, I will wait until your shopping is complete before shipping. Pay for all your items, and then when I box everything up I will calculate the new shipping charges, and refund you the difference via PayPal. That way the plant spends less time in a dark box.
