Ledebouria 'Scilla Violacea'

This plant requires bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight to thrive and maintain its distinct silvery, spotted variegation, ideally receiving 4-6 hours daily. While they can tolerate lower light, they may become leggy and lose their color.

This plant is very drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering. Allow the top inch of the potting medium to dry out before watering. During the winter months, it should be watered less often.

This plant requires light fertilization, typically every 4–8 weeks during the spring and summer growing season. Use a balanced, water-soluble, or cactus fertilizer diluted to half-strength to avoid overfeeding. Do not fertilize during winter dormancy. We recommend Espoma Cactus Liquid Plant Food.

Proper nutrition is important to the health of your plant and its longevity. To ensure your plant is getting the appropriate nutrition, use a fertilizer labelled for this plant type and apply according to the label.

Toxic if ingested by people or pets. Wearing gloves is suggested when handling this plant since the sap can cause skin irritation.
