  • Ornithogalum sardienii

    Oudtshoorn, RSA.

    South African dwarf bulbous that performs best if grown on very poor soil, essentially mineral, so as to develop a tuft of short and dense brush-like leaves. If kept on organic soil, it forms very long leaves, losing its charm. Learn More
  • Ornithogalum lithopsoides

    Oudtshoorn: Conglomerate hills,Vanwykskraal, RSA.

    Dwarf species with epigeal bulbs of a few millimeters in diameter, always wrapped in the residues of old leaves. In autumn, the tiny leaves appear, typical for the translucent band that crosses them longitudinally. Learn More
  • Ornithogalum hispidum

    Little Karoo, South Africa.

    Interesting for the three or four small leaves covered with very fine hair. Over time the bulbs proliferate forming dense colonies, from which the thin filaments of the inflorescences emerge. Winter grower. Learn More
  • Ornithogalum corticatum

    Interesting for the long and narrow leaves, radially open and flattened on the ground, very shiny. The flowers are snow-white, collected in a raceme. The bulb is underground and surrounded by the membranous residues of the old leaves. Learn More
  • Ornithogalum caudatum

    Specie davvero peculiare di bulbosa dai tratti di vera succulenta. Il bulbo rimane esposto sopra il suolo e tende a perdere le porzioni secche per esporre i tessuti vitali, verdi, su cui si formano i bulbilli che in seguito cadono a terra per radicare e originare un nuovo individuo (clone).
