Chlorophytum nervosum

A Chlorophytum name with no usable wild records, so its native conditions cannot be measured and this profile uses genus norms. Grow it like a typical tropical African Chlorophytum: bright light, a warm wet growing season, a drier rest and a free-draining mix for its fleshy roots.
