The Gloriosa superba is a plant belonging to the family Colchicaceae. This belongs to the family of flowering plants that are characterised by the gynoecium that consists of a swollen placenta.

It is a poisonous plant and the rhizobium of the plant is the most toxic. The alkaloids present in it can be used in small quantities as medicine. It reproduces sexually by seeds and asexually by tuber formation.
