L. nepalense #SLY22 Top Size A rarely offered species native to Nepal. The bowl- shaped, pendulous flowers are an unusual lime green, heavily stained inside with dark purple or


mahogany for half to two-thirds of each petal.


Fully open flowers are 6 inches in diameter. The 4 foot plants carry 7 or more flowers once estab- lished. A little fussy to establish as this species sends out long stolons. Planting in an area with rocks, a small raised bed or pots to restrict stolen elongation will force bulbs to produce flowers.
