It generally has a tufted growth habit, with thin leaves appearing before the flowers. The flowers have white tepals, 8–12 mm long with sharply pointed tips. There is usually only one flower per flowering stem (peduncle), although there can be up to three. The flower stalks (pedicels) are 10–18 mm long. The style is just longer than the stamens. The six-lobed ovary is disc-shaped.[[6]]TaxonomyAcis nicaeensis was first described in 1867 by Honoré Ardoino, as Leucojum nicaeensis.[1] The specific epithet nicaeensis refers to Nice, in south-east France.[8] In 2004, it was transferred to Acis, along with other species of Leucojum, on the basis of a molecular phylogenetic study.[9]Distribution and habitatAcis nicaeensis is native to the Maritime Alps and neighbouring coast of south-eastern France (including Monaco), where it is found on rocky hillsides.[[6]]CultivationAcis nicaensis is grown as an ornamental spring flowering bulb. It is hardy to frost if planted in a sheltered and sunny position, although often grown in an alpine house or bulb frame.[6]References1. ^1 {{Citation |last1=Lledó |first1=Ma D. |last2=Davis |first2=A.P. |last3=Crespo |first3=M.B. |last4=Chase |first4=M.W. |last5=Fay |first5=M.F. |date=2004 |title=Phylogenetic analysis of Leucojum and Galanthus (Amaryllidaceae) based on plastid matK and nuclear ribosomal spacer (ITS) DNA sequences and morphology |journal=Plant Systematics and Evolution |volume=246 |issue=3-4 |pages=223–243 |url=https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Manuel_Crespo4/publication/226774240_Phylogenetic_analysis_of_Leucojum_and_Galanthus_Amaryllidaceae_based_on_plastid_matK_and_nuclear_ribosomal_spacer_ITS_DNA_sequences_and_morphology_Plant_Systematics_and_Evolution/links/0912f5075582a056b5000000/Phylogenetic-analysis-of-Leucojum-and-Galanthus-Amaryllidaceae-based-on-plastid-matK-and-nuclear-ribosomal-spacer-ITS-DNA-sequences-and-morphology-Plant-Systematics-and-Evolution.pdf |accessdate=2017-12-04 |doi=10.1007/s00606-004-0152-0 |lastauthoramp=yes }} 2. ^1 2 3 {{Citation |last=Mathew |first=Brian |year=1987 |title=The Smaller Bulbs |publication-place=London |publisher=B.T.
