Commonly known as Chincherinchee (Ornithogalum Thyrsoides) signal the end of spring season with their late flowering. Tall stems covered with white clusters of florets open gradually over a span covering several weeks and also last long as cut flowers in a vase.

They can be grown by seed or by dividing the offsets.

It used to be available in the past but now no longer available. However it's still available at one outlet here in Lahore.
