Hippeastrum ‘Cleopatra’ is an unusual and beautifully detailed variety with trumpet-shaped flowers blending soft lime green, crisp white and deep crimson-red. Feathered markings create a painted effect across each petal, ensuring every bloom looks slightly different. The sturdy stems and compact growth make it a striking choice for garden beds, decorative pots and indoor displays.
Plant in fertile, free-draining soil and water sparingly until new growth appears. Choose a warm, sheltered position and protect the bulb from heavy frost.
