Notes

'Starlight' prettyface (Triteleia ixioides 'Starlight') is a bulb for borders and low maintenance beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. It grows 12 to 24 inches tall. Butterflies visit it. Plant it near the front or middle of the border so its height fits in with its neighbors.

Pairs well with Lady's mantle, California poppy, and Silver feather grass.
