Belamcanda chinensis

Leopard Flower

With its warm orange-red flowers and long blooming season, use in sunny beds, natural gardens and rock gardens. Plant in masses or loose colonies. The large clusters of speckled, 1½ to 2 inch, star-shaped flowers rise above sword-shaped leaves. In fall, the seed capsules burst open to display clusters of seeds that look like blackberries. Use long-lasting dried seed pods in arrangements. Start easily by seed or divisions in spring. Likes sun or partial shade.

Produces many short-lived flowers which open sequentially over a long period on 2 to 4-foot plants.
