Differs from T. linifolia in bearing a mass of protruding woolly hairs from the bulb rather than short and bristly hairs, in having fewer and somewhat broader lvs., fls. more distinctly margined with red and more upright-growing in the later stages of development, in the obovate inner segms., and in the longer ovary and broader filaments. Mountains of Trans-Caspia, southwest of Aschabad. G.C. III. 29:327.—Named for G. F. Wilson of Weybridge, England. The fls. are "of a particularly deep and full vermilion-scarlet;" outer segms. oblong, with small cusp; inner segms. obovate, more or less retuse: scape short, 2-4 in. high.
