Drimia pusilla
syn: Litanthus pusillus
Description
Drimia pusilla is a diminutive bulbous plant found in South Africa. It's a fascinating species known for its small size and unique growth cycle. The plant typically produces one or two fleshy, rounded leaves. These leaves often have a spotted or mottled appearance. In spring, it sends up a delicate flower stalk with small, white or greenish flowers. Drimia pusilla needs well-draining soil and a warm environment. This little beauty is an ideal choice for those who want to add a touch of South African flora to their collections. Consistent, but careful, watering is key, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
