Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa)  

Description

Perennial plant of the agave family Agavaceae, extracts of which are used as a middle note in perfumery. The common name derives from the Latin tuberosa, meaning swollen or tuberous in reference to its root system. It consists of about 12 species. Polianthes means "many flowers" in Greek language. Botanists refer to tuberose as a cultigen, a term that describes a plant that does not occur in the wild. With its long basal leaves and tall stems topped with clusters of fragrant, tubular flowers, tuberose can make a charming addition to your flower garden or home landscape. Tuberose also makes a lovely cut flower that can be used alone or in arrangements.
