Eye Catcher

🌟 Sonatini ‘Eyecatcher’ – Cold-Hardy Colour with Serious Wow Factor

No, this isn’t your nana’s Hippeastrum. Sonatini ‘Eyecatcher’ is a bold, compact stunner bred for the outdoors—cold-hardy, free-flowering, and packed with personality. Its brilliant orange-red petals frame a crisp white centre with a lime-green throat, making it a true standout in pots, borders, or tucked into your subtropical patch.

•     🌞 Sun to part shade – thrives across NZ, from frosty Southland to balmy Northland
•     🌱 Height – 30–50 cm tall with sturdy stems and lush foliage
•     💐 Blooms – 2–3 stems per bulb, each with 4–5 flowers up to 14 cm wide
•     ❄️ Cold-hardy – no need to lift in winter, even in cooler climates
•     🛁 Low maintenance – plant once, enjoy for years

Sonatinis are bred for performance—they bloom earlier than traditional Hippeastrums and don’t need coddling. Perfect for pots, garden beds, or gifting to that friend who always forgets to dig up their bulbs.
