Comments:
Grassy foliage is variegated green with a yellow-green srtipe. Two foot spikes bear many starry, dark blue flowers above the foliage. As soon as the flowers are spent, foliage quickly truns brown. Do not removed foliage until it is thoroughly dead as the bulb uses nurishment from the dying foliage to replinish itself.
