This member of the Amaryllidaceae family was given this name by Mariano
Lagasca y Segura in 1816. It is found
in coastal western Morocco, growing in a well drained
limestone/organic soil mix with
some water and some to lots of sun. The caudex can grow to six
centimetres in diameter, the entire plant to 25 centimetres in
height. The
flowers are white. The
genera name from the Greek word meaning 'to numb' or 'numbness'. The
species name after Prof. Pierre M. A. Broussonet, 1761-1807, a
French botanist and zoologist, collecting in Morocco and the Canary
Islands. |
