Chlorophytum immaculatum

A small West African savanna Chlorophytum recorded from Senegal and Guinea-Bissau east to Benin, where the climate swings from a scorching rainless dry season to a very wet monsoon. Like most savanna Chlorophytum it is best treated as a fleshy-rooted geophyte that grows in the rains and dies back in the dry season. Little is published on the species itself, so this profile leans on the measured climate and the genus.

Where it grows wild

Recorded at low elevations in the Sudan-Guinean savanna belt; savanna Chlorophytum species typically grow in open grassland and wooded savanna on well-drained soils that are burned or baked in the dry season.

Climate sites lie at roughly 80–490 m; few records carry an elevation.
