''Thysanotus tuberosus'', known as the Common Fringe-lily is a perennial herb which is endemic to Australia. The species name ''tuberosus'' refers to the crisp tasting edible root.〔http://www.friendsoflanecovenationalpark.org.au/Flowering/Flowers/Thysanotus_tuberosus.htm〕 The leaves are linear in shape, and round at cross section towards the top. The plant grows from 20 cm to 60 cm tall. It grows in a wide variety of situations, from semi-arid parts of south eastern Australia to coastal areas receiving more than 1300 mm of rain per year. They are often found in open country, heathlands or in dry sclerophyll woodland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work= PlantNET - NSW Flora Online )〕 Flowers form from September to April. The three petaled flowers are purple, with frilly edges, and only last for one day. They are among the more colorful wildflowers in south eastern Australia. ==Sub-species== The tepals are somewhat longer and wider in ''subsp. tuberosus'', being 10 to 19 mm long, and around 10 mm wide. In ''subsp. parviflorus'' the inner anthers are smaller, and straight to slightly curved.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work= PlantNET - NSW Flora Online )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thysanotus tuberosus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
