Bulbine frutescens

            Bulbine is named for the bulb-shaped tuber of many species. Found chiefly in Southern Africa, with a few species extending into tropical Africa and a few others in Australia and Yemen.

Bulbine is a genus of succulent plants with flowers borne in lax or compound racemes. The flowers are usually yellow, with bearded stamens; some species have white, orange, or pink flowers.

Dormancy usually extends from late spring to autumn. The leaves die and drop, the roots contract into the caudex, and the aboveground parts wither. Propagation is mostly by seed, but some species form multiple heads or offsets and can be propagated with cuttings.
