Variegated Society Garlic
Tulbaghia violacea 'Silver Lace'
Variegated society garlic is a grassy, clumping groundcover that grows to around 1’ tall. Lilac-purple flower clusters delight, and creamy white stripes line the edges of each strappy, blue-green leaf, giving the plant additional color. Although garlic-scented flowers will bloom more abundantly in full sun, variegated society garlic also grows quite well in the shade. It looks lovely when planted along the edge of a pond or near a water feature.
