Pineapple Lily

Totally unique in form, and an award winner to boot, eye-catching Pineapple Lily attracts plenty of much-wanted attention to borders and container gardens. Plus, it can also be grown indoors as a show-stopping houseplant, and overwinters nicely. Its single stem bears an abundance of star-shaped, pale green florets edged in dark purple. It is crowned by a rosette of short leaves tops the flower spike, giving it the look of a pineapple. A conversation starter in the making.
