This plant is highly regarded for its attractive foliage and clusters of delicate flowers.

In summer, tall stalks rise above the foliage, bearing clusters of star-shaped flowers in shades of lavender or pink. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. The edible leaves of Tulbaghia violacea can be used as a substitute for garlic or chives in cooking, adding a subtle flavor to dishes. Grows to approx. 30-60cm H x W.
