Star Flower (or Ipheion) is a small bulb that multiplies rapidly. This is another plant that I have growing all over the place - in the Orchard, the Star Garden, the Rose Garden, and paths to the Boardwalk. If you stick a bulb in the ground, a few years later you will have a clump like these below. This little flowering bulb is just about to get really pretty. It's bloom time is very early spring. After it blooms the greenery will quickly turn brown and die back. Next winter it reliably springs up again, but lots more of it!
