Lycoris rosea Glenn Dale Peacock Silene introduced by the late ChuckLycoris 'Glenn Dale Peacock' is a lovely 2014 Plant Delights introduction from Margot Williams' breeding program. The mid August flowers on this Lycoris radiata var. pumila x Lycoris x haywardii hybrid are a dark rosy pink with prominent red stripes down the center of each petal, which is also tipped in blue truly stunning! The basal foliage emerges in October and grows through the winter to provide food for next year's flowers.
