Cyanella lutea (commonly known as "Five-fingers" or "Geelraaptol") is a species of cormous herb, native to South Africa (Cape Provinces and Free State) and southern Namibia, where it grows in clay-rich or loamy soils.
It has a flat basal rosette (plants reach a height of 25 cm) of 4-6 lanceolate, crisped (wavy margins), ribbed leaves. The rosette of leaves usually dies off, before the flowers appear.
The yellow or pink flowers are 15mm wide and appear on a branched inflorescence in late Spring.
