Sternbergia clusiana ( Inglês )

fornecido por wikipedia EN

Sternbergia clusiana is a bulbous flowering plant in the family Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae,[2] which is sometimes used as an ornamental plant. It has greenish-yellow flowers which appear in autumn.

Description

Sternbergia clusiana is found from Turkey, Iraq, Iran Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Palestine and the islands of the Aegean.[1] It grows in dry stony areas, including fields. The greenish-yellow flowers are produced in late autumn (October to November in their natural habitats). They are the largest flowers in the genus, with tepals of up to 7 cm plus a slightly shorter tube. The grey-green leaves, which are 8–16 mm wide, appear after the flowers, in winter or early spring.[3]

Cultivation

Sternbergia clusiana is not reliably hardy in countries subject to frost and is then recommended for culture under the protection of at least a cold greenhouse or frame. It is propagated by bulb division.[3]
