These our mind blowingly cute! The leaves are green, thin, and coil at the ends. So much character! The leaves extend up from a bulb and during spring can grow yellow flowers that smell sweet. Frizzle Sizzle’s like indirect filtered sunlight and don’t need to be watered often. These need care and patience!

The Dirt
Native to South Africa. These plants thrive outdoors under sunlight but it is possible to have them indoors under the right circumstances. They like the temperature to be around 60 degrees. Water them when the soil is on the dry side, around once a week. Try to not have the soil get bone dry! Not prone to any pests or diseases. This is a winter growing bulb!
Part Sun
This plant likes most rooms with windows facing west or east. You could place it in a spot away from a very sunny window – as light intensity goes down quick as you move away from the light source.
Low
Water every three weeks. Let soil dry up before watering. Feel the soil, top layer should be dry, if not dry, wait two days. If the soil still is wet you risk giving the plant too much water, you don’t want it to rot.
Pet Toxic
Only when ingested it may cause mild oral and gastrointestinal upsetness. Keep out of reach from pets and small children.
