Albuca spiralis 'Frizzle Sizzle'®

Highlights

Albuca spiralis 'Frizzle Sizzle'® PP22954: A bulb succulent with distinctive, corkscrew foliage that can be planted high in the soil with some of the bulb exposed. Its large, yellow green flowers emerge on robust stalks in spring and have a strong vanilla fragrance. Grow this variety in very bright sunlight to induce tighter leaf curling.

This is a winter-growing bulb that goes dormant and loses its leaves each summer after blooming. Keep the bulb dry through its summer dormancy and resume watering as the leaves re-sprout in fall.

PLEASE NOTE: When the flower stalks are growing, the tips of the leaves often turn brown. This is a normal occurrence and new leaves will sprout in the fall.

Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need bright sunlight, good drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
