Can you believe this squill? Ledebouria socialis was a #plantfail for me. In my defense, it was a tiny cutting to start with but I think I neglected to water it too often.
I came across this beauty at a local greenhouse over the summer - and I left it there. .

... Ledebouria socialis, ‘Silver Squill’, growing from tuberous roots resembling red onions. Foliage is much more fragile than other house plants. (Found out the hard way.) Soil surface has a layer of poultry grit as a finishing touch. Curious leaf pattern is leopard-like, green on green. Comparing current photos with winter photos, variegation is not as vivid now. Perhaps the summer sun has bleached the foliage a bit in this western window. Anyone else seeing lighter patterning on Ledebouria specimens in summer?

I want to thank @plantaloon in Utah for posting her glorious Silver Squill last November, inspiring me to seek one of my own. Found in January, this elegant plant is winning my admiration.

Você conhece a Ledebouria Socialis? Originária da África do Sul essa é uma planta bastante peculiar já que desenvolve seus bulbos sobre o solo. Portanto, quando replanta-la, certifique-se de que o bulbo (essa parte que parece uma batatinha) fique para fora da terra.

I spy a leopard Oh wait! It's just a Silver Quill ↝⠀

This plant's spotty and mesmerizing appearance will stop you in your tracks. Tough and little, it is drought resistant, but don't mistake it for a succulent even though it may resemble one. ⠀
