{"title":"Native Bulbs","description":"\u003cp\u003eTrue bulb, corm, and rhizome-forming natives — Tennessee lilies and their relatives, grown from wild-type Middle Tennessee stock. These often carry some of the showiest blooms in the native plant world, alongside real pollinator and hummingbird value.

Rosettes of stiff, sword-like blue-green leaves edged with curling white fibers form dense, low clumps, from which a dramatic flowering stalk rises in early summer, bearing masses of nodding, cream-white bell-shaped blooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis species has one of the most specialized pollination relationships in the native plant world: it depends entirely on the yucca moth (Tegeticula yuccasella) for pollination, and in turn, the yucca moth relies exclusively on Yucca filamentosa as a nursery site for her larvae — neither species can complete its life cycle without the other. It's a textbook example of obligate mutualism, and a genuine conversation piece for anyone interested in the deeper ecological relationships behind a garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAdam's Needle thrives on neglect once established, tolerating poor, sandy, dry soils where showier perennials often fail. Its bold, sculptural form makes it a natural focal point in native plantings, rock gardens, or xeriscaped beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLight: Full sun to part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWater: Drought-tolerant once established; avoid waterlogged sites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSoil: Well-drained, tolerant of poor, sandy, and rocky soils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eNote: Leaf tips are stiff and pointed — site away from high-traffic walkways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ships bare root and ready to transplant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orders ship out UPS every Monday.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dark Apothecary","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44092400271426,"sku":null,"price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/8655\/8274\/files\/amea-wadsworth-8DyOmL-jVrM-unsplash.jpg?v=1784093698"}],"url":"https:\/\/darkapothecary.myshopify.com\/collections\/native-bulbs.oembed","provider":"Dark Apothecary","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
