Emerocallidi - Hemerocallis: Il loro nome scientifico deriva dal greco e significa "bellezze di un solo giorno"; ciò è dovuto al fatto che i fiori di queste piante sbocciano al mattino e durano solamente per una giornata chiudendosi poi, verso sera.

Hémérocalles: Beauté d’un jour! Une fleur magnifique qui a inspiré de nombreux poètes, mais aussi de grands peintres comme Claude Monet !

The name Hemerocallis comes from the Greek words ἡμέρα (hēmera) "day" and καλός (kalos) "beautiful"and called poetically: Beauty for a day! A magnificent flower that has inspired many poets, but also great painters like Claude Monet. The flowers of most Daylilies, open in early morning and wither during the following night, possibly replaced by another one on the same scape the next day.

Clivia is a genus of monocot flowering plants native to southern Africa. They are from the family Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae. Common names are Natal lily or bush lily. It grows in woodland habitats in South Africa and Swaziland. It grows into large clumps and is surprisingly water wise. It is a popular plant for shady areas. While native to South Africa, they grow in many countries. Flowers are red, orange or yellow. Yellow is much harder find than the common orange. Flowering time varies. Typically C. miniata, C. nobilis and C. caulescens flower in late winter and spring; in cultivation, C. miniata has out of season flowers at almost any time. C. gardenii and C. robusta flower in the autumn. Interspecific hybrids and cultivars can flower at almost any time of the year depending on climate and the flowering pattern of their parent species. A distinctive feature of Clivia – shared with the closely related genus Cryptostephanus – is that unlike most species in the subfamily, it does not form bulbs. The long strap-shaped leaves are evergreen and spring from thick branching roots or rhizomes. Like other members of the tribe Haemantheae to which it belongs, Clivia fruits are berries. When ripe, they contain large fleshy seeds which are often more than 1 cm in diameter. Some species of Clivia produce the alkaloid lycorine which is toxic in sufficient quantities, particularly in pets and small children. 67363

The Bromeliaceae (the bromeliads) are a family of monocot flowering plants of 51 genera and around 3475 known species native mainly to the tropical Americas, with a few species found in the American subtropics and one in tropical west Africa, Pitcairnia feliciana. They are among the basal families within the Poales and is the only family within the order that has septal nectaries and inferior ovaries. These inferior ovaries characterize the Bromelioideae, a subfamily of the Bromeliaceae. The family includes both epiphytes, such as Spanish moss (Tillandsia usneoides), and terrestrial species, such as the pineapple (Ananas comosus). Many bromeliads are able to store water in a structure formed by their tightly-overlapping leaf bases. However, the family is diverse enough to include the tank bromeliads, grey-leaved epiphyte Tillandsia species that gather water only from leaf structures called trichomes, and many desert-dwelling succulents. The largest bromeliad is Puya raimondii, which reaches 3–4 m tall in vegetative growth with a flower spike 9–10 m tall, and the smallest is Spanish moss. Bromeliads are plants that are adapted to various climates. Foliage takes different shapes, from needle-thin to broad and flat, symmetrical to irregular, spiky to soft. The foliage, which usually grows in a rosette, is widely patterned and coloured. Leaf colours range from maroon, through shades of green, to gold. Varieties may have leaves with red, yellow, white and cream variations. 32415

Agave is a genus of monocots native to the hot and arid regions of Mexico and the Southwestern United States. Some agave species are also native to tropical areas of South America. The plants are perennial, but each rosette flowers once and then dies (see semelparity). Some species are known by the name "century plant". Source Wikipedia.

Agapanthus is the only genus in the subfamily Agapanthoideae of the flowering plant family Amaryllidaceae. The family is in the monocot order Asparagales. The name is derived from Greek: ἀγάπη, ἄνθος. Some species of Agapanthus are commonly known as lily of the Nile, or African lily in the UK.

In Spathiphyllum, commonly known as the peace lily, the apparent white ‘flower’ is not a petal but a spathe: a modified leaf that turns white to highlight the spadix, the central structure where hundreds of tiny true flowers are clustered. This reproductive architecture is characteristic of the Araceae family and is shared with related genera such as Monstera, Philodendron, and Anthurium, all of which use the spathe–spadix combination as an effective strategy to attract pollinators.

En el Spathiphyllum, conocido como cuna de Moisés o lirio de la paz, la aparente ‘flor’ blanca no es un pétalo, sino una espata: una hoja modificada que se vuelve blanca para resaltar el espádice, la estructura central donde se agrupan cientos de diminutas flores verdaderas. Esta arquitectura reproductiva es característica de la familia Araceae y se repite en géneros emparentados como Monstera, Philodendron y Anthurium, que también combinan espata y espádice como un mecanismo eficaz para atraer polinizadores.

Clivia is a genus of monocot flowering plants native to southern Africa. They are from the family Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae. Common names are Natal lily or bush lily.

They are herbaceous evergreen plants, with green, strap-like leaves. Individual flowers are more or less bell-shaped, occurring in umbels on a stalk above the foliage; colors typically range from yellow through orange to red. Many cultivars exist, some with variegated leaf patterns.

Liriope, a common border plant, has lovely purple flowers that last quite a while. Note the six petals on the flower in the center of the photo. That shows that the plant is a monocot, which would be expected, from the grass-like leaves.
