Boophane disticha An attractive succulent bulb from South Africa long wavy blue-green leaves. The are smooth. The stronger the light the more wavy the leaves will be. The bulb will eventually become huge. It is said to be the largest bulb of any plant and can be a foot or more in diameter when mature! Flowers are white to pink and produced in the late summer or early fall.
Easy to grow. It is a winter grower, which means it will grow from fall to spring and will go partially to fully dormant in the summer. Water regularly from fall until spring, then cut back or stop all together in the summer depending on how much it dies back. Protect from frost.

Important Shipping Information
- PLANTS ARE SHIPPED BARE ROOT If you want me to send them in pots send me a message to discuss. Extra charges due to increased shipping costs will apply.
- Immediate Payment (eBay only) Sorry! I can no longer offer a delayed purchase option as the multichannel inventory management system I have started using requires this setting.
- No Delayed Shipping (eBay only) Once you pay I have to (and WILL) ship within 3 business days or eBay will lower my seller rating. I used to have a way to delay shipping but can no longer do this for the same reason as #2 above. Feel free to message me before buying to see if we can figure something out here, no promises though.
- Winter Shipping If you live in a cold climate consider including a 96 hour heat pack in your order during the cold months. I have them as a listing. Just add it to your order. If you don’t see them just message me.
