Product Details
Highlights
African Hosta (Drimiopsis maculata) (Lindly & Paxton): A prolific bulb succulent with green and purple spotted leaves. It sprouts new bulbs regularly and forms a neat, easily divisible clump of them given time. It loses its leaves during its winter dormancy and resprouts them in the spring.
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 ample 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.
