Blandfordia grandiflora, commonly known as Large Christmas Bells, is an evergreen soft-wooded perennial native to Australia. Christmas Bells flower around Christmas and are a familiar Christmas decoration for many Australians, hence its common name. The plant is considered an endangered species in Queenland. Blandfordia grandiflora has beautiful red waxy flowers with a yellow edge. Its bells vary from dark red with yellow edging to all yellow. The plant usually takes three years to flower. The flowers grow in clusters of 3 to 9 at the top of the stem. Blandfordia grandiflora is a slow germinating plant, so the seeds will take a long time to grow. Do not let dry out between waterings. Blandfordia grandiflora requires moist, well drained soils preferably of a light texture such as sandy loam. The plant is very suitable for growing in pots and is a must for gardens. It should not be in direct sunlight or in heavy shade. Hardiness Zone: 9-12
