Bulb subglobose, 1½ in. diam.: Lvs. 4-6, appearing with the fls., linear-strap-shaped, arcuate, bright green, ¾ in. or less broad, sometimes pustulate: scape flexuous, longer than in the other kinds, sometimes 2-3 ft. long: fls. generally pale pink, the segms. oblanceolate and crisped, Km' broad; stamens declined, the 3 longer ones rather shorter than the segms. Kalahari and central region of S. Afr. B.R. 172. R.H. 1913, p. 456.
