From the UC Botanical Garden’s collection comes this South African bulb in the Iris family, found on African Hill.

Ferraria crispa
An easy to grow bulb in coastal climates, it just has these wacky flowers. I find the leaves to be a particularly fine shade of blue-green, with a great structure coming out of the bulb. Older plants can form nice large caudex-like mats of bulbs above the ground.
