Neanotis

Neanotis consists of small to medium-sized perennial herbs, typically possessing slender stems and branching roots. Their leaves, ranging from ovate to lanceolate shapes, show a characteristic veining pattern. The plant produces clusters of delicate, star-shaped flowers, usually white to pale pink, adapting well to shaded forest floors or grasslands. This specific habitat preference aids neanotis's survival, leveraging lower light for growth while minimizing direct competition with larger flora.
