Summer Hyacinth or Galtonia is a wonderful plant that provides interest and long lasting blooms. Butterflies and bees love it. Deer, rabbits, and other wildlife just let it be. It is an easy bulb to grow, and easy to store for those not fortunate to be in Zones 7-11 ( I am in the unfortunate crowd).
They are hardy to USDA Zones 7-11 only and will be need to be lifted or protected in other climates.
