Brunsvigia radulosa is one of the most spectacular flowering bulbs found in KwaZulu-Natal grasslands, producing enormous candelabra-shaped flower heads with up to 75 pale pink blooms. After flowering, the dried seed head breaks free and tumbles across the grassland to disperse seed naturally. Sunbirds perch directly on the flower stalks to feed on nectar, while the bulb itself has historically been used to seal leaking clay pots. In open veld around the Midlands, flowering Brunsvigia creates one of the region’s most striking seasonal displays.
