Each bulb produces one bare stem with a pinkish scarlet 5” globe at the top. This flower head is packed with tiny, starry red florets and long, thready red stamens with yellow tips. It looks like fireworks.
The genus name comes from the Greek words “skiadion” meaning “parasol” and “doxa” meaning “glory.” More information.
Also known as powderpuff lily. Native to Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Provide excellent drainage.
