The plant is named for its long, narrow, bright green leaves that curl in a spiral or corkscrew fashion, which adds to its ornamental appeal. The amount of curl depends on the amount of light the plant receives.
Flowers: Albuca spiralis produces tall, fragrant flower spikes, usually in the spring. The flowers are small, yellow, or greenish-yellow with a sweet vanilla-like scent.
Bulbs: Like many plants in the Albuca genus, this species grows from a bulb that stores water, helping it survive in dry environments.
Growth Cycle: It has a winter growing season, meaning it actively grows during the cooler months, and may go dormant in hot summer months. When dormant, the plant's leaves may die back, but this is normal.
Care Instructions:
Light: Albuca spiralis thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Strong light helps to create more defined, curled leaves.
Watering: Water sparingly during its growth phase (winter), allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Reduce watering when it becomes dormant in the summer.
Soil: Well-draining soil is essential, as the plant is prone to root rot if kept in overly wet conditions. A cactus or succulent mix works well.
Temperature: It prefers mild temperatures and should be protected from frost. Ideal temperatures are between 60-75°F (15-24°C).
Fertilizing: During the active growing season, Albuca spiralis benefits from light feeding with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer once a month.
