    I had this flowering plant at my previous home. I would like to get another one for my new home, but I have lost the information on it. I believe that it came from a bulb.

    I believe this is the current designation. Apparently Scadoxus multiflorus subsp. katherinae is very similar to S. m. subsp. multiflorus but flowers in summer instead of spring.
