Brighten your pond edges or bog garden with Schizostylis coccinea Major, a striking late-season bloomer that produces tall spikes of cherry-red, bowl-shaped flowers from late summer into autumn. Also known as Kaffir Lily, this hardy perennial adds a dramatic splash of colour when most other pond and border plants are starting to fade. The upright flower stems rise above arching green foliage, creating movement and vertical interest, particularly effective around water features or in moist garden beds.

Its ideal for reliably moist soils, including borders, pond margins, and boggy areas. With its vivid blooms and low maintenance needs, this variety is perfect for gardeners seeking an effortless way to introduce colour and structure late in the year. How to Grow: Light: Prefers full sun for best flowering. Temperature: Hardy in most UK climates. Watering: Requires consistently moist soil or shallow water; avoid allowing soil to dry out. Feeding: Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser in spring. Humidity: Thrives in high-humidity areas or damp locations.
