Distribution en:

Description en: Genus of 10 species of bulbous perennials from dry, upland slopes in temperate South America. They have semi-erect, narrow, linear, basal leaves, evergreen in some species, deciduous or developing after the flowers in others. Solitary, funnel-shaped flowers, held at an angle to the stems, are borne from summer to autumn. They are followed by seed capsules, which quickly ripen and open to reveal conspicuous black seeds; seed capsules are sometimes produced at the same time as the flowers. In frost-prone areas, grow in a cool greenhouse or conservatory, or at the base of a warm, sunny wall. In frost-free regions, grow at the front of a bed or border.

Hardiness en: Half hardy.

Cultivation en:

Propagation en: Sow seed at 16°C (61°F) as soon as ripe. Remove offsets in winter and pot up separately.

Pests en: Trouble free.
