Nerine 'Diana Oliver'



16th October 2011


(I have reached the point of 'describe a Nerine' burnout so you will have to note the colour for yourself. I could steal the description from Cotswold Garden Flowers catalogue, where I bought the plant, but so many other people online have done that I would feel pathetic, even by my low standards. Let's see them try to find something usable in this!)

There is a lot of uncertainty around the plant, which may have been raised at Borde Hill. The RHS Dictionary (1969) describes it as "Near mandarin red"; Tony Norris lists it as "pale orange red" and the reference in Herbertia (31:86) says "light pink".
I would say soft pink with a salmon mid-stripe, flowering in the middle of the Nerine season.
