- Alstroemeria haemantha — The scientific Latin designation for a remarkable perennial herbaceous plant species within the Alstroemeria genus, Alstroemeriaceae family, native to the mountainous regions and dry valleys of Chile.

- Antholyza caffra — A historical scientific name and taxonomic synonym for Tritoniopsis caffra (or Chasmanthe caffra), a perennial cormous geophyte native to South Africa. It features narrow linear leaves and lax spikes of 12-20 tubular, bright scarlet-red flowers blooming from spring to summer.
- Aylostera spegazziniana — A species of perennial dwarf cactus native to the mountainous provinces of Argentina, named in honor of the renowned botanist Carlos Luigi Spegazzini. The plant body is structurally formed of dark grey-green globose or short cylindrical stems, protected by short, pectinately arranged spines. It produces spectacular, deep red or scarlet funnel-shaped flowers that develop delicately from the side of the base, being recognized for its structural resistance to low temperatures during rest periods.
