ORNITHOGALUM

The name Ornithogalum comes from the Greek and means bird's milk. The symbolic meaning of the Ornithogalum is purity and innocence. The Ornithogalum has clusters of white flowers, sometimes with green stripes, of six petals and blooms in a spherical or pyramid shape. The plants consist of narrow leaves. Because of its long stem, it is very suitable for cut flowers. The Ornithogalum has about 150 varieties and originates from Southern Europe and Asia.

Planting ornithogalum bulbs

Ornithogalum bulbs can be planted in the autumn. Plant the Ornithogalum bulbs 4 to 5 inch below the ground in a sunny or partial shade. Make sure the soil is well-drained. In addition, it is important that the bulbs are planted together in small groups, so that they can expand optimally. The Ornithogalum is ideally suited for naturalizing, so you can enjoy them for years!
