This perennial tuberous plant.. sports enormous multi-petal blooms...

Colors are varied and extreme...

I ran across these beauties while visiting CallaCo during the FUN N SUN Bus Tours...

about the size of the palm of my hand... blooms can be laid on a table for decoration or placed in a shallow vase of water...

"little jewel"



 "little jewel"
Part of the Asparagaceae Family... Also known as the "Pineapple Lily" Or "Aloha Lily" because of their slight coconut fragrance...

They come in a variety of colors, including pink, blush, green and purple (shown)...

Bulb Plants... their name means "pleasing"- "hair of the head"- referring to the pineapple like top of the bloom...

CallaCo is working on releasing this flowering bulb plant as a cut flower... and frankly... I can't wait!!!!


P.S. This durable coconut fragrance flower is called "Eucomis"

Miraculous? Absolutely- and Simple to apply.


Are you using an Anti-Transpirant on All your Flowers?

Research proves that using Chrysal Professional Glory on any (and all) Flower Types helps reduce transpiration...

What's that Mean? Flower evaporate water off the bloom and continue to take water up the stem... if the rate of transpiration exceeds the rate of water uptake... flowers wilt!

Chrysal Professional Glory helps seal the flower and reduce transpiration (=Anti-Transpirant)... this added step can help make flowers last up to 26% Longer...

Miraculous? Absolutely-  and Simple to apply...
Coat all flowers with Chrysal Professional Glory after arranging....
Especially in the HEAT of Summer... 
P.S. Every Flower Benefits from Chrysal Professional Glory!
