5 Seeds Belamcanda chinensis Blackberry Lily Ornamental Perennial Flower

Belamcanda chinensis, commonly called Blackberry Lily, is a clump-forming perennial grown for its bright orange flowers speckled with red and its unusual late-season seed pods that resemble blackberries. The blooms open atop tall, slender stems through summer, adding a light, airy texture to borders and cottage-style plantings. It is a dependable, easy-to-grow choice for gardeners seeking long-lasting seasonal color and attractive structure.
This plant works well in mixed perennial beds, meadow-style plantings, and cutting gardens, where its flowers and seed heads both draw attention. It prefers a sunny position with reasonably moist, well-drained soil and settles in readily once established. Seed pods persist into autumn for continued visual interest, and spent blooms can be removed to encourage further flowering.
