Bunchflower

Bunchflower is a family of mostly perennial herbs prominent for its cluster of narrow, basal leaves and dramatic, often tall flower spikes. The flowers, typically white or greenish, are marked by distinctive six-parted perianths. Thriving in temperate zones, bunchflower's growth is adapted to rich, moist soils in shaded woodlands or grassy slopes, supporting their lifecycle in diverse ecosystems.
