A bulbous perennial growing to {{convert|30 |cm|in|abbr=on}}, it has glossy, strap-shaped leaves and erect burgundy-coloured stems. These bear umbels of 8-10 narrowly-flared, pendulous tubular flowers in shades of red, green and cream in spring and summer. The umbels are bent over in a curious crook or sickle shape (hence The Latin specific epithet falcatus, “shaped like a sickle”).[2] The plant goes dormant in winter. The bulb, shaped like a bowling pin, rests with its neck above the soil line.[3] HabitatThe bulb is only known to grow at altitudes of up to {{convert|1800 |m|ft|abbr=on}} on vertical cliffs, in the Drakensberg escarpment of the KwaZulu-Natal midlands, where the bulb is found between vertical or horizontal slabs of stone. It is probably pollinated by sunbirds.[4] CultivationThe plant is not frost-hardy, but may be grown outdoors in a warm, sheltered location in temperate regions. Alternatively it may be grown under glass, with bright filtered sunlight. In cultivation in the UK, C. falcatus has gained the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit[5] (confirmed 2017)[6] References1. ^{{cite web | url= http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idPlantNameSearch.do?id=64213-1&back_page=%2Fipni%2FeditSimplePlantNameSearch.do%3Ffind_wholeName%3Dcyrtanthus%2Bfalcatus%26output_format%3Dnormal| title = International Plant Names Index - Cyrtanthus falcatus| publisher = IPNI.org| accessdate = 6 February 2018}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q5795574}}2. ^{{cite book |last=Harrison |first=Lorraine |title=RHS Latin for Gardeners |year=2012 |publisher=Mitchell Beazley |location=United Kingdom |isbn=184533731X }} 3. ^{{cite web | url= http://www.strangewonderfulthings.com/423.htm| title = Cyrtanthus falcatus| publisher = strangewonderfulthings.com| accessdate = 6 February 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web | url= http://pza.sanbi.org/cyrtanthus-falcatus| title = Cyrtanthus falcatus| publisher = PlantzAfrica.com| accessdate = 6 February 2018}} 5. ^{{cite web | url= https://www.rhs.org.uk/Plants/5230/i-Cyrtanthus-falcatus-i/Details| title = RHS Plantfinder - Cyrtanthus falcatus| accessdate=12 January 2018}} 6. ^{{cite web | url= https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/pdfs/agm-lists/agm-ornamentals.pdf | title = AGM Plants - Ornamental | date = July 2017 | page = 26 | publisher = Royal Horticultural Society | accessdate = 24 January 2018}} 1 : Amaryllidoideae |
