Scilla scilloides
is a perennial that inhabits sunny locations,
with bulbs 1-3cm in diameter, enveloped with black-brown coats and
smelling like scallions. Leaves comprise two radical leaves, 15-20cm
long, flat, and linear. Flower stalks grow to 20-40cm in height and
set many light red-purple flowers in a racemose way. Some
individuals retain the radical leaves during flowering time, while
others do not. The flower stalks generally do not bear leaves. Bloom
time: August-September. |
