Exquisite reddish purple flowers, each with a shock of orange on the falls, brighten up pots and front of border positions in late winter. They may be small in size, but these potted bulbous perennials are real beauties, so you can enjoy their display while still in the pot and then plant them out, or pop them straight into the garden - making sure they are placed somewhere that they won't be overlooked.
