'''''Bulbine''''' is a genus of [[plant]]s in the family [[Asphodelaceae]] (occasionally [[Liliaceae]]&nbsp;<ref>{{cite web |url=http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=BULBI |title=PLANTS Profile: ''Bulbine'' Wolf |publisher=[[United States Department of Agriculture]] |accessdate=December 29, 2009}}</ref>), named for the bulb-shaped [[tuber]] shown by many of the species&nbsp;<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.anbg.gov.au/gnp/interns-2003/bulbine-bulbosa.html |title=''Bulbine bulbosa'' | work=Growing Native Plants |publisher=[[Australian National Botanic Gardens]] |accessdate=December 28, 2009 |date=June 19, 2003}}</ref>. ''Bulbine'' is found chiefly in [[Southern Africa]], with few species extending into [[tropical Africa]] and a few species in [[Australia]]&nbsp;<ref name="SANBI">{{cite web |url=http://www.plantzafrica.com/plantab/bulbineabys.htm |title=''Bulbine abyssinica'' |accessdate=December 28, 2009 |work=[[PlantZAfrica]] |publisher=[[South African National Biodiversity Institute]]}}</ref>.
 +
 +
''Bulbine'' is characterised by having flowers borne in lax or compound [[raceme]]s, and by being [[succulent plant|succulent]]&nbsp;<ref name="SANBI"/>. The flowers are mostly yellow, with bearded [[stamen]]s, although sometimes white, orange or pink&nbsp;<ref name="SANBI"/>. Several species are grown in gardens, although the most common species in the horticultural trade is ''[[Bulbine frutescens|B. frutescens]]''&nbsp;<ref name="SANBI"/>. Species of ''Bulbine'' resemble ''[[Haworthia]]'' and ''[[Aloe]]'' in appearance, but with soft fleshy leaves, many with [[tuber]]ous [[root]]s or a [[caudex]]. The various species grow as [[shrub]]s, rough tough [[weed]]y [[perennial]]s, dwarf [[geophyte]]s, and soft [[annual]]s. Many of the dwarf species have small, dome-shaped tubers.
 +
 +
[[Dormancy]] starts in late spring and lasts until mid autumn, but can vary between species and in different conditions. Leaves die and drop and the roots contract into the caudex leaving no visible sign of life on the surface. [[Propagation]] is mostly by seed although [[cutting]]s are possible as some species will form multiple heads or offsets.
