This particular Eucomis is one of the Aloha series so may be named for the Hawaiian word, Leia, which means flower of heaven. But then, its possible that the Star Wars character was called after the Hawaiian word… What makes Star Wars franchise iconic are the different vehicles and ships they used.

Rey and Kylo Ren Terrarium A dwarf dahlia with dark foliage and bright orange blooms. Showcasing the dark side and the light side of the Force, you could say! That aside, it is a good plant for containers and patio pots, flowering prolifically from early July through to the first frosts. Likes sun, and flowers well with partial sun too. You can either over winter the tubers or treat Dahlia ‘Star Wars’ as an annual flower and buy new plants each year. Also, the more confident you are with sketching out the details, the better the outlines will be. Even if you over-confidently outline the buttons on R2D2 and end up with less than his actual character has, you still get a confident representation of his character, rather than a muddled mess! Another flower named after the hero turned Sith Lord. This one is a double flowered auricula with dark red blooms. Earlier flowering than Primula auricula ‘Star Wars’That’s it (at least until the sequel). There aren’t as many Star Wars flowers as you might expect given the popularity of the films. Although there are 17 + animal species named for the films and characters. I particularly like the thought of a Jedi Ant… And now for flowers called after characters for the film series. Interestingly, characters from the Dark Side feature as strongly as the Rebel Alliance. The most famous female character, Princess Leia has two of the flowers named after her.
