Manfreda

Manfreda was a genus of flowering plants in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Agavoideae. Along with "Polianthes", members are commonly called tuberoses. The generic name honours 14th-century Italian writer Manfredus de Monte Imperiale. All species are now placed in "Agave". (See "Agave" § Taxonomy.)
Like other species of "Agave", former "Manfreda" species have rosettes of leaves branching from a very short stem, and flowers at the end of a long stalk. The flowers are tubular and whitish, yellow, green, or brownish, with lengthy stamens.
