Albuca humilis is a bulbous flowering plant, placed in the genus Albuca in the subfamily Scilloideae of the family Asparagaceae. It is native to southern Africa – to South Africa from the Free State to KwaZulu-Natal according to some sources,[1] or to the Drakensberg Mountains of Lesotho according to others.[2][3]

Albuca humilis was first described by John Gilbert Baker in 1895.[1] The specific epithet humilis means "low-growing".[4] It grows from small white bulbs, each producing only one or two narrow leaves in the summer, dying down in the winter. The flower stem is up to Шаблон:Convert tall, with one to three upward-facing flowers with six tepals up to Шаблон:Convert long. All the tepals are white with a green stripe on the outside; the inner three also have yellow tips. The flowers are strongly scented and have been described as smelling of marzipan.[2]

The species is sufficiently hardy to be cultivated in the UK when given some protection by an alpine house or bulb frame.[2][3]
