Bulbine alooides ("Rooistorm") is a species of geophytic plant in the genus Bulbine. It is endemic to South Africa, where it grows in the Cape Provinces, KwaZulu-Natal, and Northern Provinces. It is widespread in rocky areas in the southern Cape Region.[1]
The leaves of this geophyte are basal. They are long, slender, lanceolate and channeled. The leaf margins are often hairy.
The vertical inflorescence has many flowers. Each flower is star-like, with six yellow petals that each have a longitudinal stripe down their middle. Like all Bulbine species, the stamens are distinctively tufted ("bearded").
