Ammocharis angolensis is a bulbous geophyte in the daffodil and onion family, native to seasonally dry tropical woodland and grassland in east and central Africa. It is a wild species rarely grown in gardens, so care depends on keeping the bulb dry while dormant and giving it a warm, sunny spot.
Ammocharis angolensis is a flowering plant and geophyte belonging to the family Amaryllidaceae and is native to Angola, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.
