Drimiopsis maculata

Native to South Africa, this easy-to-grow bulbous plant was imported from there by the V.O.C. to the Netherlands in 1868. After hibernation in spring, the African Hosta has lots of young leaves with dark spots on the upper side, and can be grown outdoors in a sunny spot from early May, when the risk of night frost has passed. The rather small bulbs grow best in and nutritious clayey soil mixture and should be kept moist throughout the growing season with occasional top-ups in the pouring water. The unsightly white flowers are at the end of a long stem. In autumn, the plant retreats and loses all its leaves. Over-winter at 5 degrees C.
