This very unusual perennial will be an awesome addition to your flower bed. The Pineapple Lily plant will get about 36" H and 48" W at maturity and begins its bloom in early summer with what appears like spiked tropical fruit (looking) cream color flowers appear which then turn to a purple color. The foliage is strap shaped and green with hues of purple accent. Eucomis are nicknamed "Pineapple Lily" for their tall inflorescence and spiky tops that look like the tropical fruit. Excellent as a perennial thriller in containers or the landscape.
