| 説明 | Succulent Flower Stalk Just After Sunrise...It's a species of Bulbine. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BulbineBulbine is a genus of plants in the family Asphodelaceae (occasionally Liliaceae[2]), named for the bulb-shaped tuber shown by many of the species.[3] Bulbine is found chiefly in Southern Africa, with few species extending into tropical Africa and a few species in AustraliaBulbine is characterised by having flowers borne in lax or compound racemes, and by being succulent.[4] The flowers are mostly yellow, with bearded stamens, although sometimes white, orange or pink.[4] Several species are grown in gardens, although the most common species in the horticultural trade is B. frutescens.[4] Species of Bulbine resemble Haworthia and Aloe in appearance, but with soft fleshy leaves, many with tuberous roots or a caudex. The various species grow as shrubs, rough tough weedy perennials, dwarf geophytes, and soft annuals. Many of the dwarf species have small, dome-shaped tubers.Dormancy starts in late spring and lasts until mid autumn, but can vary between species and in different conditions. Leaves die and drop and the roots contract into the caudex leaving no visible sign of life on the surface. Propagation is mostly by seed although cuttings are possible as some species will form multiple heads or offsets.I believe my plant is known as Snake Flower, akaBulbine frutescens[Fam. Asphodelaceae]________I can now tell you, these are killed by hard freezes lasting more than a day in Tucson, Arizona, USA________www.herb.co.za/herbal/bulbine.htmI think this is what I have in my garden.Other Names / Related SpeciesAfrikaans: balsemkopieva, copaiba, geelkatstert, katstertEnglish: cat’s tail, bum jelly plant, stalked bulbine, grass aloeSotho: Khomo-ya-Ntsukammele, sehlare-sa-pekane, sehlare-sa-molloTswana: IbucuXhosa: intelezi, ingelwaneZulu: ibhucu, intelezi |
