Clivia nobilis, Lindl. (Imantophyllum Aitoni, Hook.). Lvs. about 12, strap- shaped, very obtuse, with a roughish edge: fls. 40-60, hi an umbel; perianth curved and drooping; tube narrowly funnel-shaped, shorter than in C. miniata; segms. tipped with green, about 1 in. long; stamens as long as the segms.; style exserted. Cape Colony. B.M. 28.56. L.B.C.20:1906. Intro, to cult. 1828.—I. cyrtanthiflorum, Van Houtte (F.S. 18:1877), said to be a hybrid between this and the above, shows little if any influence of C. miniata. It has the narrow tubed, pendulous fls. and the greenish tinge of C. nobilis. R.H. 1894, p. 573.
