Drought Smart Plants reply: You have some really interesting plants where you live, Ahmed.

This one is quite gorgeous.

I'm going to ask what it smells like - it looks like some kind of ornamental onion - if it is, you'll get the characteristic scent. If it isn't, I'm going to guess it's some sort of relative of the lily family, based on the grass like foliage and the form of the flower.

I'm pretty sure if you dug this one up, it would be a bulb of some kind.

You got me on this one!
