The most darling Mexican Shell Flower which you will be hard pressed to see anywhere else.  This is a diminutive wild species found in Chiapas where it grows in wet meadows and flowering in summer.  We've not tried ours outside yet but it should be ok in a warm spot mulched in winter.

We like so totally rock.  Did you ever expect a little nursery in Port Townsend to offer this choice Tigridia species from arid Mexico?   Ashy gray, purpley black and burnished buff combined in a mind-twisting combo of fly-wing veination and reptilian patterns.
