Chlorophytum graminifolium
A grass-leaved Chlorophytum of the Western Cape winter-rainfall region, with over 300 wild records. Unlike tropical relatives it grows in the cool, wet winter and spring and rests through a hot, dry summer, so growers must reverse the usual watering calendar.
Where it grows wild
Records fall in fynbos, renosterveld and succulent Karoo edges of the southwestern Cape. It most likely grows among low shrubs and restios in sandy or stony soils, in full sun.
Climate sites run from near sea level to about 1,300 m; few records carry their own elevation.
