Description

Massonia pustulata is a small bulbous perennial with two horizontal opposite leaves and virtually stalkless, white, yellow, or pale pink flowers that appear in winter. The stamens are longer than the perianth, giving the flower an appearance of a rounded spiky brush-head. The deep "pockmarks" on the leaves give the plant its common name and the specific epithet "pustulata."
