Pancratium maritimum (the scientific name) is practically a flower bulb that grows on beaches and sand dunes around the Mediterranean sea and a few more parts of the world. Extremely tolerant to hot and arid climates, sand lily (a more casual name) has survived for thousands of years until the modern concept of tourism started to invade to its habitat. Nowadays it is in danger of extinction and can only be found in remote and unspoiled coastlines. I am fortunate enough to live only a few kilometers away from one of those coastlines and when it flourishes every fall, I make sure to be there :)
That's just georgeous
Thank you very much! It is my favorite plant :)
