“…A similar number of leaves (13.1) was reported in R. baurii var. platypetala grown under long-day conditions at 20-30°C (Mori and Sakanishi 1990).…”

“…Advanced flowering is particularly important in the cultivation of ornamental plants, as it facilitates planning the production for specific dates. According to Mori and Sakanishi (1990), the advanced flowering of R. baurii depends on the temperature during rhizome storage, cultivation and planting date. According to these authors, the first to flower (35 days from planting) were the plants grown from the rhizome planted on 14 April and stored for 18 weeks at 6°C.…”

“…The horticultural market offers a few botanical forms and several varieties of R. baurii, differing mainly in the colour, shape and size of flowers. R. baurii is used as a pot plant for decorating interiors, balconies and terraces or as a ground-cover plant in rock gardens in England, Japan, Australia and New Zealand (Mori and Sakanishi 1990). R. baurii is still uncommon in Central and Eastern Europe.…”

Rhodohypoxis baurii is an ornamental plant recommended for pot and garden cultivation. The aim of this study was to determine the relationships between rhizome weight and the growth, flowering and rhizome yield in two cultivars (‘Dusky’ and ‘Ruth’) of R. baurii grown as pot plants. The rhizomes were sorted into three groups by weight: 0.10-0.20 g, 0.21-0.30 g and 0.31-0.40 g. The study revealed that the plants developed from the largest rhizomes were the highest, the widest, produced the most leaves, inflorescences per rhizome, flowers per inflorescence and were the first to flower. The plants developed from rhizomes of 0.21-0.30 g and 0.31-0.40 g did not differ in their flowering rate, flower diameter or the weight of rhizomes at the end of the growing season. Flowers developed in all of the plants grown from rhizomes weighing at least 0.2 g. A comparison of cultivars showed that 'Dusky' plants were higher, wider, had more leaves, inflorescences and flowers per inflorescence, flowered earlier and produced rhizomes of greater weight than 'Ruth' plants, which had a higher greenness index and larger flowers. Both cultivars did not differ in their flowering rate. Rhizome weight gain after the cultivation period depended rather on the cultivar than on the size of the planted rhizomes.

“…Although plants belonging to the family Hypoxidaceae are well known to contain a variety of phenolic compounds [2][3][4], no systematic chemical work has been carried out on R. baurii. The present investigation of the bulbs of R. baurii led to the isolation of three new phenolic glycosides (1)(2)(3), together with a known glycoside (4). This paper is a report on the structural determination of the new glycosides, on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, including twodimensional (2D) NMR data, and of hydrolytic cleavage followed by chromatographic or spectroscopic analyses.…”

“…belongs to the family Hypoxidaceae and is indigenous to South Africa. It is lowgrowing, up to 150 mm with sparsely hairy leaves and colorful flowers, and is a popular container plant in Europe, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand [1]. Although plants belonging to the family Hypoxidaceae are well known to contain a variety of phenolic compounds [2][3][4], no systematic chemical work has been carried out on R. baurii.…”
