Family Asparagaceae
Originating from South Africa
A giant pineapple lily with huge, strap-shaped mid green leaves and a long, stiff stem holding a large raceme of white, star shaped flowers, resembling a pineapple.
I prefer to grow this plant in a pot as the leaves look far more elegant draping the sides of a pot than trailing along the ground.
Requires well-drained soil and full sun. If grown in a pot prevent from freezing in the winter.
Height and spread after 1 – 2 years 1m x 30cm
Semi mature height and spread after 3 – 4 years 1m x 60cm
