Moderate-growing, rush-like evergreen growing from a bulb to 12″ tall x 12-20″ wide. Narrow, glossy, dark-green foliage is accented with showy, yellow-centered white flowers that rise above the foliage in late-summer and fall. Both bold and dainty, this attractive species is certain to lend an elegant touch to rock gardens, borders, mixed flower planters, as a mass planting, or even partially submerged in water gardens. Tolerates a wide range of soil conditions and prefers regular watering, though allowing the soil to dry between watering will encourage a stronger-blooming specimen. Thrives in a sun to partial shade exposure.
