The Desert Lily, scientifically known as Hesperocallis undulata, is a flowering plant native to the arid regions of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. It typically grows in sandy or rocky soils and can reach heights of up to 2 feet. The plant features long, narrow leaves and produces large, white, trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom in the spring. This plant is well-adapted to its harsh environment, with a bulbous root system that stores water. The Desert Lily plays a role in its ecosystem by attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies, contributing to the biodiversity of desert habitats.
