Notes

'Single White' freesia (Freesia 'Single White') is a bulb for borders, containers, and low maintenance gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. The white flowers are fragrant. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Plants reach 12 to 24 inches tall.

Pairs well with Anemone, Angelonia, and Evergold sedge.
