A rarely recorded Chlorophytum whose name points to the Daraina area of northern Madagascar; GBIF has no usable wild records and there is no measured climate. Growing advice here is a genus-level estimate for a seasonally dry, warm Malagasy Chlorophytum and should be treated as a starting point only.

Where it grows wild

Unknown; the Daraina area runs from near sea level to about 1,000 m.
