Conanthera is a genus of small bulbous plants with small panicles of blue, purple or white and purple flowers. Propagation is by offsets or seed. All species are native to Chile, but there is an old 18th-Century report of C. bifolia occurring in colonial Peru[3] as well. This could possibly be attributed to changes in boundaries between the two countries, as modern sources list the species as endemic to Chile.[2][4]
