Dierama is a genus in the Iridaceae and is popularly known as Fairy's Fishing Rods or Fairy's Wand. Its cultivars produce graceful flower shoots bearing flowers of a range of colours from white through to dark red. It retains some foliage throughout most winters in the temperate zone but its principal over-wintering stage is a corm or rather a chain of corms similar to those of Crocosmia species.
