Arthropodium milleflorum
Template:Short description Template:Speciesbox
Arthropodium milleflorum, the pale vanilla lily, is a species of herbaceous perennial plants native to Australia.[1] It occurs in various habitats including alpine areas and grows to height of between 0.3 and 1.3 metres hand a width of and 0.3 metres.[2][3] The fleshy tubers were eaten by Aboriginal Australians.[4] The plant emits a strong vanilla fragrance, which becomes more noticeable on warm days.[3]
Flowering stems appear in late spring and summer, with two or more pendulous white, pale blue, or pink flowers at each node.[1][3][5] The tubers are typically 20–30 mm long and 3–5 mm in diameter.[6] Arthropodium minus is a related but smaller species, producing only one flower per node.[3][5]
Plants may be propagated from seeds or by dividing the tubers.[3]
