Description
The listing, WOW! Five Larger size Pregnant Onion "Babies" (seeds) has ended.
This plant is Supercool,ODD and UNUSUAL aswell as fun to grow , I Will send Five "Babies" some at least about the size shown in fourth picture to insure success. This Plant also known as a Hediouse Sea onion or Ornithogalum longibracteatum is super hardy, I've had mine for ten years(the third picture) and have gone whole winters without watering it only shrivles then plumps right up after watering again. it will flower usually in the winter if watered regualarly though. the flowers are really cool too growing very tall,this plant originates in south Africa.i have shared it with people and we have had more success growing larger pips("babies")
Its called a Pregnant Onion because the "babies" grow under the skin and then pop out.
IF this happens to go for say over 400 and is a local pick up I will part with one of the "mothers" the largest ones shown in the third picture. they are about the size of a baseball.
Questions & Comments
What an unusual plant but it is pretty. Does it grow in regular dirt or does it need special soil and does it require direct sun light?
