Drimia maritima (syn. Urginea maritima) is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Scilloideae (formerly the family Hyacinthaceae).[3] This species is known by several common names, including squill, sea squill, sea onion,[4] and maritime squill.[5] It may also be called red squill, particularly a form which produces red-tinged flowers instead of white.[5] It is native to southern Europe, western Asia, and northern Africa.[4]
