Ledebouria Apertiflora
''Ledebouria'' is a genus of African bulbous perennial herbs in the Asparagus family, Asparagaceae, subfamily Scilloideae. Most members were previously part of the genus ''Scilla''.

Most of the species are native to Madagascar and Africa (except North Africa), but a few are from India, Sri Lanka or the Arabian Peninsula. The genus name of ''Ledebouria'' is in honour of Carl Friedrich von Ledebour (1786–1851), a German-Estonian botanist. It was first described and published in Nov. Pl. Sp. on page 194 in 1821.
