Pineapple lily, Eucomis, takes its common name from the unusual appearance of its flower. It's an easy to grow summer-flowering bulb, perfect for growing in sunny herbaceous borders, in pots on the patio and the greenhouse or conservatory.
Eucomis autumnalis produces a long thin flower spike topped with a small rosette of leaves. For best results keep plants well watered during summer but keep dry in winter. New plants can be propagated by removing offsets from the parent bulbs in spring.
