Drimia multisetosa

Drimia multisetosa displays tufts of long, slender leaves that emerge from a bulbous base, a striking adaptation to its dry native habitats. This perennial's tall, unbranched stems showcase dense clusters of small, resilient flowers, often a soft hue of pink or white, attuned to attract pollinators in sparse terrain. Its multiple bristle-like setae provide a unique texture, aiding in water conservation and deterrence of herbivores.
