freesia

The genus Freesia comprises around fifteen cormous species native to South Africa, belonging to the Iridaceae family. Narrow, upright leaves accompany a often-arching flowering stem bearing highly fragrant, funnel-shaped flowers arranged in a one-sided spike. Flowering occurs in spring. As the exact species is not specified for this item, this description remains at genus level: freesias grow best in a sunny, sheltered spot on light, well-drained soil, since the corms dislike standing moisture during summer dormancy.
