Romulea is a genus in the Iridaceae family of about 90 species that is found both in South Africa and in Europe. Rootstock is a corm, globose, bell shaped to top shaped, compressed or asymmetric with a circular to crescent shaped basal ridge. This genus has flowers reminiscent of Crocus. Many are quite striking, especially the South African species and there is a great variation in color and markings of the flowers. They are easy to grow in pots and many are easy from seed, flowering rather quickly in some cases. Romulea hantamensis is a rare South African endemic species from the Northern Cape Province where it can be found in Succulent Karoo on damp dolerite flats at elevations of 1500m. It grows to 5cm tall with several grooved leaves. This species needs cold stratification to germinate successfully. It bears 3-6 brilliant magenta flowers with violet margins.
