Ledebouria socialis Scilla Leopard Lily
When I bought this Leopard Lily a few years ago it was stated to be a succulent , but honestly I don’t know that to be true.
The leopard lily is drought tolerant, grows bulbs on the side of the parent bulbs and really is a ideal houseplant which propagation is very easy to achieve.
Planting your leopard lily just right at soil levels helps them to not rot.
Make sure you keep at a medium moisture but allow to dry out between waterings.
Grows to 6 inches tall, like a sun to part sun area. Can tolerate neglect.
Easy to grow indoor houseplant and is a unusual plant to most people that say they have never seen this plant.
Watch the video as I will be transplanting this unusual plant .

Very cool. I’ve had this growing in a little pot for almost 10 years now and had no idea what it was. Found a clump of them growing under a shrub on the side of a friend’s house, presumably someone had just dumped the plant and it took root. I stuck a few in a pot and they’ve gone with me from California to Oregon to Pennsylvania. Really cool little plants. I’m glad to know they have such a cool name as well: Leopard Lily.
Thanks for the blog, I’m glad to have found it.
