- Allium aflatunense — The scientific name of an ornamental onion species in the family Amaryllidaceae, native to the mountainous regions of Central Asia (Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan). Growing from an underground bulb, the plant produces tall, rigid stems supporting a spectacular, globular inflorescence composed of dozens of small star-shaped flowers of an intense purple hue, making it highly popular in modern spring landscaping.
- Allium albopilosum — The archaic scientific name or botanical synonym for the species Allium christophii (commonly known as the 'star of Persia'). It is a spectacular bulbous ornamental plant, remarkable for its huge, airy spherical inflorescences that can reach 20-25 cm in diameter, composed of flowers with rigid, pointed, silvery-violet petals displaying a characteristic metallic sheen.
- Arpophyllum giganteum — A remarkable species of large epiphytic orchid within the Arpophyllum genus, distributed from Mexico down to Colombia and Venezuela. It is commonly nicknamed the 'hyacinth orchid' due to its spectacular, massive, and erect inflorescence, formed by a dense cluster of hundreds of small, vivid purple or intense pink flowers that visually resemble a giant hyacinth.
