Angel's Fishing Rods (Dierama Pendulum) are a vibrant and eye-catching plant species native to Southern Africa. The flower stalks grow as tall as six feet and sway in the breeze. The charm of Angel's Fishing Rods is in their airy, festive blooms, which come in shades of lavender, pink, cream, and white. They are perfect for creating a colorful centerpiece in any garden or balcony. The spikes last for several months during the summer and attract birds, butterflies, and bumblebees. They are hardy yet require some protection from winter winds and temperatures below 25°F, but can tolerate a wide variety of soils and environments.
