Abstract:
A NEW CROP

Lachenalia is a bulbous genus endemic to the south western Cape in South Africa (SA) and belongs to the Liliaceae family. The genus comprises approximately 110 species and a number of these are grown commercially on a small scale, e.g. L. aloides. ARC-Roodeplaat developed, through breeding and selection, a number of cultivars which are currently being test marketed in Europe as both garden and potted bulbs.
