Albuca Spiralis 130mm

Albuca spiralis, commonly known as Frizzle Sizzle, is a charming bulbous succulent from South Africa, prized for its tightly coiled, glossy green leaves that resemble playful spirals. In late winter to spring, it produces nodding, yellow, vanilla-scented blooms that add a delightful touch of fragrance and whimsy. Its compact, sculptural form makes it an eye-catching addition to any succulent collection, sunny windowsill, or rock garden.

 Foliage: Glossy green, spiral-shaped leaves with a distinctive curl.
Flowers: Yellow, vanilla-scented blooms from winter to spring.
Growth Habit: Compact, bulb-forming succulent.
 Height/Spread: Grows 10–20 cm tall and spreads about 10–15 cm.
 Dormancy: Enters summer dormancy after flowering — foliage may naturally die back.

Care Tips

• Light: Bright, indirect light to full sun; strong light enhances leaf curls.

• Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix; bulbs should sit slightly above the soil surface.

• Watering: Water moderately during active growth (autumn–spring). Reduce watering in summer dormancy and avoid overwatering.

• Fertilizer: Feed lightly with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season.

• Temperature: Protect from frost; ideal for mild climates or indoor growing.

• Maintenance: Allow a full rest during dormancy; resume watering when new growth appears in autumn.
