The showy, white blooms with stripes on the reverse appear in great profusion over blue-tinted foliage. The leaves give off a slight scent of onions when bruised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIpheion makes cheerful carpets of sweetly fragrant, 1″ star-shaped flowers beginning here in northern Connecticut in April. Plants grow just 3–5″ tall, so they're ideal for edging a spring border or naturalizing under deciduous trees and shrubs, where they soon spread to form impressive colonies. The foliage will persist until hot weather arrives, and then re-emerge from dormancy in late-September. Seedlings may not retain the same color as the parent, so remember to deadhead if you wish to keep your planting intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor more information on the growing and care of Ipheion, click Growing Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"White Flower Farm","offers":[{"title":"25 bulbs","offer_id":47980128534681,"sku":"0340255-F","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/9983\/9129\/files\/11016.jpg?v=1782075772","url":"https:\/\/www.whiteflowerfarm.com\/products\/ipheion-alberto-castillo","provider":"White Flower Farm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
