Rhodophiala bifida (Herb.) Traub
- Common Name: Oxblood Lily, Schoolhouse Lily
- Family: Amaryllidaceae J. St-Hil.
- Country of Origin: S. Brazil to Argentina (Buenos Aires)
- Culture: The autumn/winter/spring-growing Rhodophiala bifida from Uruguay and Argentina. It is dormant in summer but receives year-round rains. Therefore intolerant of thorough summer drought that would make it lose the roots. It is quite hardy (-12 °C frosts are experienced by the southernmost populations). Summers always long and hot in the wild. Propagation from seed is necessary as only individual bulbs are found in the wild. It flowers in late summer before heavy foliage production. Alkaline soils in the wild although at the northernmost corner of its distribution it grows in acid red clays. Full sun in all cases.3
