Notes
'Messina' guernsey lily (Nerine 'Messina') is a bulb for container growing. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes part sun and average moisture. The flowers are neyron-rose. It blooms in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, so the color returns twice in the season.
Pairs well with Rabbit's ears, Sedge, and Sorrel.
