A pure white flowered form of the species. None of the forms of T. simmleri have lasted very well with me. Vosa notes that the species occurs in habitat with
Clivia miniata and I would say that they had similar hardiness but that the soft growths of T. simmleri turn to mush in the first sharp frost,
while the fibrous growths of Clivia will survive one or two freezes before they die. San Marcos Growers say: "An evergreen perennial with a bulblike rootstock that forms 1-2 foot tall and wide clumps of grey-green flate agapanthus like agapanthus like foliage and fragrant lavender-pink white flowers composed of 6 tepals with a crown in the center that are held in umbels on top of 1-2 foot tall erect stems in late winter and early spring as foliage is re-emerging and often lasting into summer with some rebloom in the fall and early winter." |
