What is Lachenalia namaquensis

Birth flowers for Dec 7, Nov 26

The birth flower for November 26th is Lachenalia (Scientific name: Lachenalia).

The Lachenalia is blooming with small bell-shaped flowers, looking just like a lighting stand made of many gathered lampshades. Next to it, a fluffy white baby rabbit with perked-up red ears and cute round eyes is basking in the sun. May today be a peaceful day, however simple it may be.
