Ledebouria Socialis Scilla leopard lily is a small evergreen perennial bulbs. Grows  in thick clusters that survive drought as effectively as any succulent.

This species is a geophytic species of bulbous perennial plant native to the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa.

When I bought this ledebouria socialis scilla leopard lily a few years ago it was stated to be a succulent like  in nature.

The leopard lily is drought tolerant. Grows offsets  on the side of the parent plant.  Is a ideal houseplant.    Propagation is very easy to achieve.

I have this plant in my south facing window.   It is said that they can handle a few hours of direct sun a day.. It is doing quite well in this location in my home.

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 watering.

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.

They like to rest in the winter months, during their resting time they still look great and seem to thrive under weekly watering.

Watch the video as I will be transplanting this unusual plant .
