Ismene (plant)
''Ismene'', or Peruvian daffodil, is a genus of South American plants in the Amaryllis family. The species are native to Peru and Ecuador and widely cultivated elsewhere as ornamentals because of their large, showy flowers. ''Ismene'' produces tender perennial bulbs bearing a strong resemblance to those of ''Hymenocallis'', a genus into which ''Ismene'' had often been grouped in the past. However, its morphology differs from ''Hymenocallis'' in several significant ways: its vegetative parts, natural range, and chromosome number are all distinct. ''Ismene'' can be difficult to grow in the United States.Howard, Thad M. ''Bulbs for Warm Climates''. Austin, Texas: University of Texas Press, 2001, pp 98–99.

Amaryllidoideae
Amaryllidoideae (Amaryllidaceae ''s.s.'', amaryllids) is a subfamily of monocot flowering plants in the family Amaryllidaceae, order Asparagales. The most recent APG classification, APG III, takes a broad view of the Amaryllidaceae, which then has three subfamilies, one of which is Amaryllidoideae (the old family Amaryllidaceae), and the others are Allioideae (the old family Alliaceae) and Agapanthoideae (the old family Agapanthaceae). The subfamily consists of about seventy genera, with over eight hundred species, and a worldwide distribution. Description The Amaryllidoideae are herbaceous, perennial flowering plants, usually with bulbs (some are rhizomatous). Their fleshy leaves are arranged in two vertical columns, and their flowers are large. Most of them are bulbous geophytes and many have a long history of cultivation as ornamental plants. They are distinguished from the other two Amaryllidaceae subfamilies (Agapanthoideae and Allioideae) by their unique alkaloidal ...
