Dracunculus Vulgaris Bulbs

Large carmine flower with a deep purple-black spadix. Dracunculus is one for the back of the border, as the flower develops, it gives off a strong, unpleasant odour which usually only lasts for a day or two. Give it a year to settle, and you will be rewarded with a real talking point of a plant.
It will increase in size year by year, and you can admire it from a distance!
