Chlidanthus soratensis (Chlidanthus soratensis)
Description
Most Hippeastrum bulbs are tunicate (a protective dry outer layer and fleshy concentric inner scales or leaf bases). The bulbs are generally between 5-12 cm (2"-5") in diameter and produce two to seven long-lasting evergreen or deciduous leaves that are 30-90 cm (12"-36") long and 2.5-5 cm (1"-2") wide. The leaves are hysteranthous (develop after flowering), sessile, rarely persistent and subpetiolate.
