Autonoe

Autonoe is one of the genera in the 2003 proposed split of the genus Scilla. This genus in the Hyacinthaceae family is mainly based in the western Mediterranean region. It has large plants, distinct in having orange to purple, fleshy fruits and unique in not producing nectar. Seeds are quite large. For more information about those proposed Scilla changes consult Julian Slade's post. This new genus has not been accepted by Kew.
