Stamens 6, inserted on perianth; filaments free or connate into a short tube; anthers versatile, 2-celled, dehiscing by vertical slits. Ovary inferior, 3-locular; ovules anatropous, often biseriately superposed; placenta axile or parietal. Fruit either a dehiscent or an indehiscent capsule or berry; seeds few.

Annual, biennal or perennial herbs; sometimes subshrubs or even shrubs, very rarely climbing; usually with a subterranean bulb, tuber, corm or rhizome, sometimes producing superterranean bulbils or rooting buds; stem present or absent; often erect or nearly so. Leaves simple, alternate or rarely verticillate to subopposite, membranaceous to chartaceous, or coriaceous or fleshy, some reduced to scales. Flowers mostly bisexual, rarely unisexual; actinomorphic to slightly zygomorphic, solitary, or in racemes, spikes panicles, umbels or subumbels; tepals mostly 6, rarely 4 or 8, free or connate at base and forming a tube, equal or more or less unequal. Stamens 6, rarely to 12 or fewer, hypogynous or adnate to and always opposite tepals; filaments free or variously connate; anthers 2-celled, oblong to linear, opening by a lengthwise slit or rarely by a terminal pore. Ovary usually superior, rarely half inferior, mostly 3-celled, rarely 1-celled or 4-celled; ovules numerous in each cell, biseriate, rarely 2, placentas parietal; style mostly 1, entire or more or less 3-fid.

Flowers few to numerous, white, pink, purplish red or very rarely yellow; sometimes partly replaced by bulbils; pedicels slender, radial; perianth segments 6 in 2-series, free or partly connated at base, uniform in color, but inner ones often somewhat different in shape or size, 1-nerved, spreading to suberect; stamens 6, inserted at base of perianth; filaments subulate or basally much broadened, inner ones sometimes with a tooth or toothed lateral segments on margins; anthers medifixied; ovary superior, sessile or short stipitate, 3-celled; style single, filiform or shallowly 3-lobed; ovules 1 or 2 in each cell. fruit a capsule, globose or obovoid, loculicidally 3-valved. Seeds several, black, shining, angled, flat.
