I don't know this from personal experience, but I sure wouldn't want to be
the guy who has to handle bulbs of Urginea maritima all day - at least not
without gloves and a face mask!

I wonder if my acquired immunity to alstroemeria-induced dermatitis
has also protected me against the offending antigen in Urginea
maritima, because I've handled Urginea fairly frequently without an
unpleasant reaction.
