Eucomis comosa 'Sparkling Burgundy' is an exotic beauty that garners its unique name, Pineapple Lily, from its uncanny resemblance to the tropical fruit. Rising up to a modest 2-feet tall, this perennial star of South Africa showcases a grand spectacle of pale pink, star-shaped flowers arranged in a dense raceme, atop a strong stem. These distinct blooms proudly nestle in rosettes of rich, burgundy leaves characterized by their charming wavy margins. The aesthetics of this tough, yet elegant plant make it an eye-catching addition to any landscape, whether it be as an individual showstopper or a border contributor. Resilient in its demeanor, the Pineapple Lily flourishes under full sun to partial shade conditions and has moderate watering requirements. An added boon comes in its congenial relationship with pollinators, attracting these beneficial insects, while maintaining a firm, naturally repellent stance against deer. Not simply "another garden plant," the 'Sparkling Burgundy' echoes the wild beauty of its native land and adds a dash of the extraordinary to your outdoor space.
