Category photo (no photo of its own for this entry)
Endemic to the Western Cape, South Africa, where it grows in fynbos, Romulea multisulcata, known as the "waterfroetang", is a cormous Iridaceae bearing yellow flowers in spring. The corm is globose to top-shaped, compressed or asymmetric, with a circular to crescent-shaped basal ridge. Like other Romulea, the plant becomes dormant as a corm over summer and resumes growth with the winter rains. Precise identification of this stock remains to be confirmed. It requires well-drained, humus-rich soil and a sunny position.
