Rigidella (Latin, somewhat rigid; referring to the pedicels, which after the petals fall become erect and stiff). Iridaceae. Half-hardy bulbous plants allied to Tigridia and useful for planting in the garden. Leaves broad, plicate, with channeled petiole: fls. fugitive, bright red, pedicelled; perianth-tube none; segms. very unequal, outer oblong, connivent in a cup in the lower third, then spreading or reflexed; inner very small, erect, ovate, with a narrow claw.—About 3 species, Mex.
