Sophisticated, sometimes outrageous yet extremely easy to grow! Gloriosa Lilies or Climbing Lilies are tropical vines that perfectly fit this description. These high-fashion florists' flowers are known for their magnificent flowers with dramatically forward-reaching stamens and swept-back, ruffled petals so that the flowers appear to be moving forward at high speed.

Gloriosa Greenei
Kanapaha Botanical Gardens Gainesville, Florida a.k.a. Climbing Lily
This species is a perennial herb growing from a fleshy rhizome. The plant likely is pollinated by butterflies and sunbirds. It grows in many types of habitat, including tropical jungles, forests, thickets, woodlands, grasslands, and sand dunes. It can grow in nutrient-poor soils and can be found at as high as 2500 metres in elevation. This plant is poisonous, toxic enough to cause human and animal fatalities if ingested. Every part of the plant is poisonous, especially the tuberous rhizomes, containing high levels of colchicine, a toxic alkaloid. Poisonings can occur when the tubers are mistaken for sweet potatoes or yams and eaten. Some uses for this plant include traditional medicines in many cultures, arrow poison in Nigeria and snake repellent in India. Some cultures consider it to be magical, and the flowers are part of religious rituals. It is the national flower of Zimbabwe. In 1947 Queen Elizabeth II received a diamond brooch in the shape of this flower for her twenty-first birthday while travelling in Rhodesia, now called Zimbabwe.

I see a wild and free spirit here. Every year, a tradition now, on the day of our return from the Continent, friends give me a huge bouquet of lilies, this year no different... except, there was an extra surprise, this very exotic lily, picked from their greenhouse, delicately and carefully wrapped for the long journey... Gloriosa is a genus of five or six species in the plant family Colchicaceae, from tropical Africa and Asia. The most common English names are flame lily, fire lily, gloriosa lily, glory lily, superb lily, climbing lily, and creeping lily. thanx for your time and comments, greatly appreciated, M, (*_*) Please do not use any of my images on websites, blogs or any other media without my explicit permission. © All rights reserved Why not view the set as a slide-show?
