A winter rainfall species usually grown under glass, larger much rounder corms than F. laxa, bearing spidery yellowy-green flowers in late spring. Freesia viridis var. crispa is very similar to the above but has undulating leaf margins.

Photographs of this Freesia taken at the former African Garden in Estover, Plymouth, Devon; once home to the NCCPG National Collection of Freesia Anomatheca Group.
