Dierama pendulum is a beautiful evergreen plant grown from bulbs that can reach 2'-3' tall and 1'-2' wide. It likes rich, well drained soil in full sun. If harsh winter climates, plant in containers and move indoors. Leaves clump like grass and bell- shaped, pendulous flowers top wiry stems. It comes in a range of colors, depending on the cultivar.
