The Cameroon lily is a lesser-known relative of the classic ampel lily, with beautiful orange-green leaves, very easy to care for!
Compared to the hanging lily, Chlorophytum orchidastrum has a more compact growth habit and wider leaves with striking orange petioles. It forms underground shoots, just like the hanging lily, from which new rosettes of leaves emerge. However, because the distances between the shoots are short, it does not develop long shoots but instead grows like a dense bush.
Botanical description.
Chlorophytum orchidastrum originates from West Africa and belongs to the asparagus family (Asparagaceae). Just like the classic hanging lily ( Chlorophytum comosum ), it is very easy to care for and hardy!
Care.
Chlorophytum thrives best in partial shade to full sun. It should never dry out completely, but can handle short dry periods without problems.
To support its rapid and vigorous growth, it should be fertilized regularly. During the growing season, from March to October, it is sufficient to provide nutrients approximately every two weeks at half the dose. Buy Cameroon lily online!
