Notes
| Hundreds of varieties from miniature, dwarf, standard and tall sizes and many colours and bicolours to choose from. They must be planted so the top of the rhizome is exposed to air. Older varieties can grow in poor soil with no water. Caution: stomach irritant. Excellent heat resistance, moderate growth rate. |
