Chlorophytum chloranthum
A Madagascan Chlorophytum recorded widely across the central highlands and the south-east, mostly around 1,000 m. Little is published on its ecology, so it is best treated like other Malagasy highland Chlorophytum: a clumping, fleshy-rooted herb of grassy slopes, rocky ground and forest edges that grows in the warm wet summer and slows in the cooler, drier winter.
Where it grows wild
Records spread from humid eastern escarpment forest margins to drier southern grassland and rocky slopes, which suggests a fairly adaptable herb of open to lightly shaded ground. No species-specific habitat account was available; this is inferred from the record spread and the genus.
Recorded from 133 to 1,600 m, median about 1,000 m, so most plants experience mild highland temperatures rather than lowland heat.
