A Guest Article by Paul Chapman:
There are many similarities between Nerine and Cyrtanthus, but also many differences. Both are members of the Amaryllidaceae family sensu strictu, which includes genera from Galanthus (snowdrops) through to Crinum. However, they have much more in common than this alone. Both genera have their centres of distribution in South Africa, and are entirely limited to the African continent, although Cyrtanthus spreads northwards with a number of little known species in tropical Africa.
