Pineapple Lily

Eucomis, commonly known as the pineapple lily, is a genus of bulbous perennials native to southern Africa. These plants feature basal rosettes of strappy, often purple-mottled leaves and stout flower spikes topped with a tuft of leafy bracts, mimicking the appearance of a pineapple. They thrive in well-drained, fertile soil and prefer full sun to partial shade. Ideal for borders, containers, or rock gardens, they provide a unique architectural focal point and long-lasting summer blooms.
