St Bernard Lily
A white cloud under the Pine trees...
Thousands of little white flowers open now. The St Bernards Lily (Anthericum ramosum) is in full bloom. They are not always so many, quite often you find only a few plants together.
It is a bulbous plant, with thin stems, grassy leaves and delicate flowers.
It is not really a Lily but looks much like it. At least, it has a bulb and six petals and parallel-nerved leaves.
