Tigridia 

MEXICAN SHELL FLOWER—TIGRIDIA 
TIGRIDIA 
Tigridias have often been referred to as the fire-works of 
the garden, for the sudden opening of the flower bud into its 
glorious burst of color is as spectacular as a ‘‘Roman Candle’’ 
on a Fourth of July night. The flowers are large and come in 
a wide range of color, the throat is beautifully spotted and 
mottled in red and gold. 
The flower lasts but a day BUT a clump of these bulbs well 
planted in a sunny location will yield bloom all Summer. From 
a planting of but a dozen bulbs as many as 15 flowers may be 
open each day.
