Veltheimia (named for the Count of Veltheim, 1741-1801). Liliaceae. Greenhouse and half-hardy tunicate bulbous perennials; spring and summer.
Leaves radical, several, oblong or strap-shaped, rather thick, herbaceous, lower longer than the upper, sheathing the base of the simple leafless scape: fls. showy, pendulous, densely grouped in a terminal raceme or spike; perianth tubular, cylindrical, persistent, lobes 6, very short, tooth-like; stamens 6; ovary sessile or subsessile, oblong, 3-celled: caps. membranous-scarious, the 3 angles strongly dilated and wing-like, loculicidally 3-valved.—Three species, S. Afr. They are easy of cult. and are but little known in Amer.
