I thought of another one. Amaryllis belladonna often persists around
abandoned home sites for many years and continues blooming in our
area. It does require removal of seasonally desiccated leaves to be
really attractive but this is not a big task. I suspect that many of
the South African geophytes would also persist for long periods,
particularly those from the west coast in Namaqualand.
