Description
Gloriosa superba 'Rothschildiana', or glory lily, is a rare climbing bulbous plant with undulating red flowers with a yellow heart.
Also known as the Malabar lily, this tender plant develops a small voluble liana about 2m (7ft) tall with dark green, lance-shaped, glossy foliage. From June to August, the large 10cm (4in) long flowers, whose colour changes from green to yellow and red, appear with a unique shape reminiscent of that of a lily. The narrow and undulating petals curl backward. The long yellow filaments and prominent pistil emerge from the centre of the flowers. The flowering will be more abundant if you bend the liana by winding it around its support.
Gloriosa 'Rothschildiana' is sensitive to frost and therefore is cultivated in a well-drained pot, in good soil. Being a tropical plant, it requires a lot of heat and good humidity.
Be careful! It is toxic if ingested!
For an exotic effect, plant it in a terracotta pot or place your pot in a rattan or bamboo cachepot.

Planting and care
Plant from March to May, with the bulb flat in a 20cm (8in) pot, covered with 5cm (2in) of soil, alone or preferably in pairs, head to toe. Water regularly and keep at a temperature above 12° (53.6°F). Apply fertiliser once a week, as gloriosa is a hungry plant. You can take the pot outdoors from June onwards. Curl the liana by winding it around its support, as this will stimulate flowering. At the end of the flowering period, stop watering and store until the following spring. You can also plant it directly in the ground, but only after the last frost, in a sheltered and sunny location with moist soil. Don't forget to dig up and store the bulbs in early autumn, placing them in a crate covered with turf.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
