Interesting Notes About OCTOPUS PINEAPPLE LILY
Pineapple Lilies are native to South Africa and they get their name due to the inflorescence at the top of the flower scape, as it looks like the tropical fruit.
Pineapple Lilies are very late to emerge from dormancy, and may not emerge from the soil until June.
