Belamcanda chinensis
Blackberry Lily Zones: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Originally from China, Blackberry Lily has naturalized here and makes a showy addition to our flower gardens. Flowers are star-shaped, orange with red spots, 2 to 3 inches wide, and are borne on loosely arranged 2 to 3 foot candelabras in summer. Flowers are followed by showy seed pods that split open when ripe revealing clusters of shiny black seeds resembling blackberries. Foliage looks like that of Iris. Give Blackberry Lily well-drained, average soil and full sun. Butterfly Weed, Stokes' Aster, Coreopsis, Coneflowers, Sundrops, and Fire Pinks are excellent companions. Cat# 1037
