Namaquanula bruynsii
Namaquanula bruynsii is a rare bulbous perennial in the daffodil and onion family, endemic to Namibia and known from very few sites. It is a desert-adapted geophyte, so it needs a dry, sunny spot and a dormant period with little water.
Namaquanula bruynsii is a rare, bulbous perennial plant in the Amaryllidaceae family, specifically within the subtribe Strumariinae. The species is endemic to Namibia. It was first described in 2005 by South African botanist Dierdré A. Snijman and is named in honour of Dr. Peter Vincent Bruyns, who discovered the species in 2001.
