Chlorophytum belgaumense

A rare monsoon geophyte from peninsular India, recorded around Belgaum in the northern Western Ghats and in central India. Like its Indian relatives it most likely sprouts from fleshy tuberous roots with the June rains, flowers in the wet season and dies back for a long dry rest from November to May.
