Star-of-Bethlehem (Ornithogalum umbellatum)

The image features the visual characteristics of Ornithogalum umbellatum, commonly known as the Star-of-Bethlehem. This perennial bulbous plant is native to Europe, Northern Africa, and Western Asia. It is widely recognized for its starry white flowers with six petals that often feature a distinctive green stripe on the underside, though the stripe is less visible when the flowers are fully open as seen here.

Historically, the plant was formally described by Carolus Linnaeus in 1753. While it is frequently cultivated as an ornamental garden plant due to its spring-blooming beauty, it is also known for its ability to escape cultivation and naturalize in the wild, sometimes becoming invasive in regions like North America. Because this is a biological organism rather than a manufactured consumer good, it does not have a manufacturing country, brand owner, or corporate parent in the traditional sense.
