{"title":"Drimiopsis","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrimiopsis is a genus of South African bulbs related to Hyacinth, Muscari, Eucomis, and Scilla. Some taxonomists want to merge Drimiopsis with Ledebouria, so stay tuned. Most drimiopsis have spotted leaves and produce small, whitish, muscari-like flowers. Drimiopsis plants grow as a small clump, like a \u003ca title=\"miniature hosta\" href=\"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/collections\/hosta-plant-blue-variegated-large-small-miniature-plantain-lily\"\u003eminiature hosta\u003c\/a\u003e, and will spread slightly via offsets. Because of its small stature, Drimiopsis is perfect for a rock garden, stone wall, or container.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDrimiopsis prefers part sun in the garden and is drought-tolerant. In climates similar to its native South Africa, Drimiopsis is evergreen, but near the cold end of its hardiness range, becomes deciduous. Drimiopsis prefers well-drained soil and does not like to be wet in the winter.

Wade noticed that the leaves were larger than the commonly grown form and the foliar patterning held up better in the summer heat. For us, Drimiopsis maculata 'Slow Fade' makes a winter deciduous basal rosette of fleshy green foliage, highlighted with dark purple flecks. In early May (NC), the clumps are topped with 6\" spikes of tiny white buds that open as grey-green flowers. Drimiopsis maculata is native to stream banks and forest floors in South Africa, but we grow it in our full sun rock garden with \u003ca title=\"Check out our opuntia cactus \" href=\"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/collections\/opuntia\"\u003ecactus \u003c\/a\u003eand \u003ca title=\"See our amazing agaves\" href=\"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/collections\/agave\"\u003eagaves\u003c\/a\u003e...please don't report us.\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Plant Delights Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21025517829,"sku":"3661","price":18.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/files\/Drimiopsis-maculata-Slow-Fade.i-3661.s-67129.r-1.jpg?v=1791482835"},{"product_id":"drimiopsis-sp-nov-kampersrus","title":"Drimiopsis sp nov Kampersrus","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrimiopsis sp. nov. Kampersrus is an un-named species of drimiopsis that was recently discovered and came into cultivation circa 2014 without a published specific epithet. This fascinating species hails from South Africa's Limpopo Province, near the town of Kampersrus. For us, Drimiopsis sp. nov. Kampersrus emerges in spring and grows through the summer with oblong light green leaves, highlighted by prominent dark green longitudinal bands. The small, tight clumps are adorned by short spikes of small white flowers in early May (NC). Eventually forming a 6\" tall x 1' wide clump, these fit perfectly in a typical rock garden, where they are winter hardy, and make great container plants in colder regions. Our plants have been in the ground since 2018, and have so far survived 11 degrees F with no difficulties.\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Plant Delights Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40069902041175,"sku":"16674","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/files\/Drimiopsis-sp-nov-Kampersrus.i-16674.s-66938.r-1.jpg?v=1790095376"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/collections\/Drimiopsis-sp-nov-Kampersrus-1900x350b.jpg?v=1683043557","url":"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/collections\/drimiopsis.oembed","provider":"Plant Delights Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
