Blackberry Lily, Belamcanda chinensis, Perennial Seeds (Fast, Showy, Hardy)

Description: Blackberry Lily, Belamcanda chinensis (Iris domestica), Seeds Fast Growth, Showy Flowers and Fruits, Cold and Heat Tolerant Blackberry Lily is an erect, rhizomatous perennial which typically grows 2 to 3 feet tall. Lily-like, deep orange flowers to 2 inches across, heavily spotted with red dots, have 6 petal-like perianth segments. Flowers appear in early to-mid summer in sprays above the foliage on wiry, naked stems typically rising to 3 feet tall. Sword-shaped, Iris-like, medium green leaves to 10 inches long are in flattened fans. Flowers give way to pear-shaped seed pods which split open when ripe in late summer, with each pod revealing a Blackberry-like seed cluster, hence the common name of Blackberry Lily. Spotting on the flowers gives rise to the additional common name of Leopard Lily. Native to China and Japan, this relative of the Iris found its way to the United States some time ago and quickly made itself at home. It is a welcome surprise when found in the wild, where it has escaped from gardens and it will be a beautiful addition to your own display. Consider the Blackberry Lily for your sunny to partly shaded borders. Too seldom seen in American gardens, it features the foliage of an Iris, the blooms of a Lily, and a fruit that resembles a Blackberry (Do not eat them). Long-blooming and very easy to grow, it is a fine addition to any planting, resembling nothing else around it yet very lovely in its own right.
