Sandersonia aurantiaca, known as christmas bells,
is a climbing bulbous plant from South Africa with attractive
orange-yellow, bell-shaped flowers. These beautiful and long-lasting flowers were once common in their wild habitat of Swaziland, but are now threatened due to the expansion of agricultural activities.
Sandersonia is a half hardy, perennial. Grow in a sheltered, sunny site with well-drained soil. As its name suggest, the flowers have a very unusual urn-like shape, and form at the tips of slender, bow-shaped stems. Highly prized and long lasting cut flower.
Seed are available
