A selection of our best flowers |
The specie nerine sarniensis come originally from South Africa, where the orange flowering bulbs grow in the mountains of the southern Cape Province. They arrived in Europe in the 1600's and made their home on the island of Guernsey, from whence they get their common name of the 'Guernsey Lily'. They also are sometimes called the 'Jewel Lily' for the sparkle effect of sunlight on their petals.
