Romulea Bulbocodium Subsp. Pulchella

Romulea bulbocodium subsp. pulchella is a rare and striking member of the Iridaceae family, known for its vibrant, bell-shaped flowers. Native to the mountainous regions of southern Europe, this subspecies thrives in rocky, well-drained soils and cool climates. Its delicate pink or purple blooms appear in late spring, adding a touch of elegance to alpine landscapes.
