What is an adaptation for the desert lily?

The desert lily has several adaptations that help it thrive in arid environments. One key adaptation is its ability to store water in its fleshy leaves and bulb, allowing it to survive long periods of drought. Additionally, the plant has a deep root system that reaches underground moisture, and its flowers bloom quickly after rainfall, ensuring reproduction before the conditions become too harsh. These adaptations enable the desert lily to effectively manage water scarcity in its desert habitat.
