Tasmania has
one native species of Tricoryne (T. elatior).
This is a rare species of lowland grasslands of Northern Tasmania.
It has wiry, erect stems with grass-like leaves and conspicuous
yellow, terminal flowers with tufts of hairs about half way up the
stamen filaments. The flowers are of similar size and colour as
those of Hypoxis, but the latter
does not have hairy filaments and has inferior ovaries. |
