SIZE: 3 BULBS

The Ornithogalum arabicum, also known as the Star of Bethlehem, is a native plant of the Mediterranean. It is commonly referred to as the Arabian star flower and produces large, fragrant, and white flowers (up to 2 inches in diameter) on scapes that can reach 18-24 inches tall. These flowers have star-shaped white petals (tepals) with yellow anthers and a central black bead-like ovary. The plant also has dark green grass-like foliage. Another variety of this plant, known as Ornithogalum umbellatum, is commonly called the Star of Bethlehem and blooms during winter.

Planting

  • Plant the bulbs 3–6 in deep, with the pointed ends facing up
  • Space the bulbs 6 in apart
  • Water well after planting
  • In containers, use well-draining potting soil
For optimal growth, keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering. In areas with frost, it is recommended to lift the bulbs in the fall and store them in a cool, dry place. For areas without frost, the bulbs can remain in the ground. During the growing season, use a liquid plant food every 1-2 weeks and a water-soluble fertilizer monthly. After the flowers and foliage have died, allow the plant to rest and remove any yellow or dead leaves. Repotting should only be done when the pots become overcrowded. This plant is reliably winter hardy in USDA Zones 8-10.
