Amaryllis
belladonna (Belladonna Lily or Naked Lady) is a very common garden species that has become
established on some house sites in both urban and rural areas. It is a robust
clump forming plant with conspicuous pink or pink and white flowers
that occur in umbels at the end of dark erect stems. One very
distinctive feature is that the flowers come out in autumn, at a
time when the plant is leafless. At the time of flowering, the plant
looks like a saprophyte. |
