DAUBENYA ZEYHERI SEEDS
You are bidding on 5 seeds
Daubenya is a genus in the Hyacinthaceae family from South Africa. Most of the species are found in the winter rainfall area. Common to all are two spreading prostrate leaves and white to yellow or red tubular flowers in a condensed raceme followed by papery capsules with smooth glossy seeds. Flowers are pollinated by butterflies, beetles, sunbirds and bees depending on the individual species.
Daubenya Zeyheri is from calcareous-coastal sands in the South Western Cape. It has glossy green leaves and flowers with white petals and showy red-orange filaments. That much alone makes it an attractive plant when viewed from the side. The wonderful surprise comes when you view it from above. The bottom of the stamens are coloured purple and this colour reflects in the copious nectar pools that gather in the flowers. It looks like the flowers are filled with glowing amethysts. The nectar attracts sunbirds who pollinate it. Daubenya Zeyheri is a flat growing species, which flowers on the ground. All Daubenya Zeyheri are winter growers.
