Description
The species was discoved by Munford Foster in the Nuevo Galicia or Tepic region of Mexico. It later was discovered growing in the vicinity of the Guadalajara area and now is known to be more broadly distributed in central west Mexico. A rather short crocus like species flowering only 7-8" high with color ranging from deep rose to white, our selection is a soft pretty pink. We are always searching for that deep rose form that Munford originally collected. Z. fosteri flowers late June for use here at our new Native Oasis Botanical Garden. Very limited supply. we are still building our stock up to be a sustainable population that we can pull from. Very rarely offered species. TOXIC WHEN EATEN!!! VERY EASY TO GROW!!!
