This is the Sea Dafodil that grows along all Mediterranean coast as well as Atlantic coasts and the Black Sea. it bloom in August-October. In Israel it is a protected species, though common, it is declining due to coast development for recreation. these days we try to promote this species as an ornamental, this way it can be protected in coastal and inland gardens. If irrgated it has great looking leaves all year around.

These are the leaves of the desert dafodil, you can see the flowers in a few of my previous pics. It blooms in October and the fruits are ripe already in December, dispersing the seeds to germinate with the same year winter rains. The leaves are typically coiled.
