These blossoms emerge on slender stalks and often appear en masse, creating a striking display against the plant's grass-like foliage. Thriving in well-draining soils, hesperantha candida is adapted to survive in habitats that may experience periods of drought, utilizing its corm as a water reservoir during dry spells.
