This South African perennial bulb, standing proudly at a height of up to 25cm, graces the landscape with its enduring bright yellow flowers during the Spring season. Boasting a unique Winter-growing and Summer-dormant nature, Sparaxis acutilobus proves to be a versatile choice for both gardens and containers.
