Ipheion

I. uniflorum was introduced as early as 1832. Origin: Southern Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina and Peru where they occur in large numbers in meadows and grasslands as well as rocky terrains. They prefer to thrive in full sun. The finely rubbed leaves have a slight onion scent, the flowers smell like soap. Because of this onion scent, Ipheion is also used between rose bushes against rose nematode. Very suitable for naturalising.
