'''Amaryllidaceae''' is the [[botanical name]] of a family of [[flowering plants]]. The plants are [[herbaceous]] [[perennial plant|perennial]]s that grow from [[bulb]]s, often with showy flowers. It consists of about sixty [[genus|genera]] (see [[list of Amaryllidaceae genera|list of genera]]), with over eight hundred [[species]]. Several genera are commonly grown in gardens, including:

*''[[Amaryllis]]'', the Belladonna Lily or Naked Lady
*''[[Caliphruria]]'', Amazon lily
*''[[Clivia]]'', the Kaffir lily
*''[[Crinum]]'', Swamp Lily
*''[[Eucharis (plant)|Eucharis]]'', Amazon Lily
*''[[Snowdrop|Galanthus]]'', Snowdrop
*''[[Habranthus]]'', Rain lily
*''[[Hippeastrum]]'', commonly sold as Amaryllis or Christmas Amaryllis.
*''[[Hymenocallis]]'', Peruvian Daffodil, Spider Lily
*''[[Leucojum]]'', Snowflake
*''[[Lycoris (genus)|Lycoris]]'', Spider Lily or Hurricane Flower
*''[[Narcissus (genus)|Narcissus]]'', Daffodil, Jonquil, and Narcissus
*''[[Pancratium (genus)|Pancratium]]'', Sea Daffodil
*''[[Sprekelia]]'', Jacobean lily
*''[[Sternbergia]]'', Winter daffodil
*''[[Zephyranthes]]'', Rain lily, Zephyr lily

Amaryllidaceae has been recognized, with varying circumscriptions, by most classification systems of the 20th Century, although the [[Cronquist system]] included it within a very broadly defined [[Liliaceae]]. The two families have traditionally been separated by including species with inferior ovaries in Amaryllidaceae and those with superior ovaries in Liliaceae. The [[APG II system]] (2003) includes Amaryllidaceae in [[Alliaceae]] but allows for its optional recognition, in the order [[Asparagales]], in the [[monocots]] clade. The [[APG system]], of 1998, accepted this as a separate family.

Fay and Chase (1996) include ''[[Agapanthus]]'' in Amaryllidaceae (as subfamily Agapanthoideae) but the APG II system includes ''Agapanthus'' in Alliaceae, with optional recognition in its own family as [[Agapanthaceae]]. ''Agapanthus'' differs from other Amaryllidaceae in having superior ovaries.

Amaryllidaceae is the botanical name of a family of flowering plants. The plants are herbaceous perennials that grow from bulbs, often with showy flowers. It consists of about sixty genera (see list of genera), with over eight hundred species. Several genera are commonly grown in gardens, including:

Amaryllidaceae has been recognized, with varying circumscriptions, by most classification systems of the 20th Century, although the Cronquist system included it within a very broadly defined Liliaceae. The two families have traditionally been separated by including species with inferior ovaries in Amaryllidaceae and those with superior ovaries in Liliaceae. The APG II system (2003) includes Amaryllidaceae in Alliaceae but allows for its optional recognition, in the order Asparagales, in the monocots clade. The APG system, of 1998, accepted this as a separate family.

Fay and Chase (1996) include Agapanthus in Amaryllidaceae (as subfamily Agapanthoideae) but the APG II system includes Agapanthus in Alliaceae, with optional recognition in its own family as Agapanthaceae. Agapanthus differs from other Amaryllidaceae in having superior ovaries.
