Amaryllidaceae
Sign in to saveThe Amaryllidaceae are a family of herbaceous, mainly perennial and bulbous (rarely rhizomatous) flowering plants in the monocot order Asparagales. The family takes its name from the genus Amaryllis and is commonly known as the amaryllis family. The leaves are usually linear, and the flowers are usually bisexual and symmetrical, arranged in umbels on the stem. The petals and sepals are undifferentiated as tepals, which may be fused at the base into a floral tube. Some also display a corona. Allyl sulfide compounds produce the characteristic odour of the onion subfamily (Allioideae).
AI overview
The Amaryllis family is a group of flowering plants that mostly grow from bulbs and includes familiar species like onions and daffodils, recognized by their distinctive linear leaves and symmetrical flowers arranged in clusters. These plants matter because they are economically and culturally significant—they provide important food crops, ornamental flowers for gardens, and distinctive aromas that define common plants we encounter daily.

石蒜科（学名：Amaryllidaceae）是單子葉植物綱，天門冬目的一個科。石蒜科分为三个亚科，約有60屬，800多種，主要生长在世界各地的温带地区，中国有12属约25种。早期的分類系統（克朗奎斯特分类法）將石蒜科分類在百合目內，2003年经过改进的以基因亲缘关系分类的APG II 分类法认为可以和葱科及百子莲科合并，也可以单分。 本科植物为多年生草本，地下部有一被薄膜的鳞茎，较少为根茎；基生少数细长叶；花两性，单生或数朵排列成伞形花序，生于花茎顶端，下有一总苞，通常二至多枚膜质苞片构成，被片6枚、2轮，成美丽的花瓣状，下部常和生成长短不同的管，裂片上有附属物（副花冠），子房下位3枚；蒴果或肉质浆果。 下列各屬常被栽培做為庭園觀賞植物： 孤挺花屬 君子蘭屬 - 君子蘭 雪滴花屬 朱頂紅屬 - 朱頂紅 蜘蛛百合屬 雪片蓮屬 石蒜屬 - 石蒜 水仙屬 - 水仙

The Amaryllidaceae are a family of herbaceous, mainly perennial and bulbous (rarely rhizomatous) flowering plants in the monocot order Asparagales. The family takes its name from the genus Amaryllis and is commonly known as the amaryllis family. The leaves are usually linear, and the flowers are usually bisexual and symmetrical, arranged in umbels on the stem. The petals and sepals are undifferentiated as tepals, which may be fused at the base into a floral tube. Some also display a corona. Allyl sulfide compounds produce the characteristic odour of the onion subfamily (Allioideae).
The family, which was originally created in 1805, now contains about 1600 species, divided into 71 genera, 17 tribes and three subfamilies, the Agapanthoideae (Agapanthus), Allioideae (onions, garlic and chives) and Amaryllidoideae (amaryllis, daffodils, snowdrops). Over time, it has seen much reorganisation and at various times was combined with the related Liliaceae. Since 2009, a very broad view has prevailed based on phylogenetics, and including a number of other former families.
