Have you ever seen Hymenocallis woelfleana in bloom? Well,
now you have. Native to Mexico. This is the first time I
have ever seen this plant or this species in bloom.
Superficially resembles Hymenocallis eucharidifolia but the
leaves of woelfleana are pronouncedly petiolate. My #1780.
The cup of woelfleana is smaller than that of eucharidifolia.
Most Hymenocallis ovaries are sessile. Note that the ovary
of woelfleana is pedicellate. I received this plant in Nov.,
2003, as a small bulb in leaf. It came from Hugh Bollinger.
