Puschkinia is a genus of two known species of bulbous perennials in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Scilloideae. It is native to the Caucasus and the Middle East.
This genus is named in honor of the Russian botanist Apollo Mussin-Pushkin. It was once included in the Liliaceae.
Leaves are green and strap-like, growing in twos.
Flowers are borne in early spring in racemes to 25 cm (6 in) high.
Seeds are borne in three-parted capsules. After seed ripens in early summer, plants go dormant till the next spring.
Like members of the genus Chionodoxa, the bases of the stamens are flattened and closely clustered in the middle of the flower. In the related genus Scilla, the stamens are not flattened or clustered together.
