| The Baboon Flower 'Assorted Colors, 'Babiana', a fall planted corm, produces enchanting flowers on slightly hairy leaves with each stem bearing up to 5 flowers of outstanding beauty, color and shape. The common name 'Baboon Flower' comes from the fact that baboons used to dig up the corms for food! They are also very fragrant. When used for an indoor plant, place the bulbs in a deep (6-8") pot. Stop watering when the leaves turn brown, and then resume after six weeks. This plant attracts butterflies and it is great for containers, borders and as a specimen plant. |
