A genus of plants in the lily family, characterized by fleshy leaves and small yellow or orange flowers, native to Africa and Asia.
From Latin 'bulba' (bulb) plus the scientific suffix '-ine,' applied to this plant group by Carl Linnaeus.
Bulbine is used in traditional African medicine for healing wounds and burns—it's so useful that it's becoming popular in gardens worldwide despite its humble appearance.
