2 X AFRICAN FALSE HOSTA Drimiopsis maculata BULBS

African hosta plants, which are also called African false hosta or little white soldiers, leopards ears somewhat resemble true hostas. 

They have similar foliage but with spotting on the leaves that adds a new element to beds and gardens.

The African hosta goes by a few different Latin names, including Drimiopsis maculata and Ledebouria petiolata.

 Its placement in a plant family is not fully agreed upon, with some experts putting it in the lily family 

and others with hyacinth and related plants. Regardless of its classification, African hosta is a warm weather plant, growing best outdoors in a shady position.

Grow these warm weather plants for a unique new garden feature.

This is a wonderful little groundcover from South Africa. It has succulent, thick green leaves which are covered in Leopard spots.

The spots are a dark green to almost black, and the colour tends to be enhanced (e.g. darker spots on the foliage) in a shady spot and over winter.

The flowers are nice but not spectacular. They are white or white with a little bit of green and grow in clusters. Each individual flower is bell-shaped.African hosta care is simple once the plants are established. They are not picky about soil type, tolerate some salt, and do well in heat and drought. There are no particular pests or diseases that bother African hosta, but shade-loving pests like slugs or snails may do some damage.
