Ipheion uniflorum is a species of flowering plant, related to the onions, placed in the allium subfamily (Allioideae) of the Amaryllidaceae.[1] It is known by the common name springstar,[2] or spring starflower. Along with all the species of the genus Ipheion, some sources place it in the genus Tristagma,[3] but research published in 2010 suggested that this is not correct.[4] It is native to Argentina and Uruguay, but is widely cultivated as an ornamental and reportedly naturalized in Great Britain, France, Australia, New Zealand [5] and the United States.[6]
