Are you looking for an unusual plant to bring enjoyment and whimsy to your gardening endeavors? Albuca ‘Frizzle Sizzle’ or Corkscrew Albuca has thick, tightly curled leaves on short stems that arise from an underground bulb. Fragrant yellow flowers appear in spring on flower spikes that are adorned with 10-20 blooms per spike. The blossoms have a light vanilla fragrance. Grow in full sun and allow the soil to dry out between waterings. There are no pest or disease problems with ‘Frizzle Sizzle’ so it makes an ideal home garden plant that’s distinctive and eye-catching.
Special Note to Customers: Albuca ‘Frizzle Sizzle’ is a spring bloomer. When it sends up flower stalks, it often causes the tips of the leaves to brown and can cause the leaves to uncoil. This is a natural occurrence. If you don’t want this to happen, simply remove the flower stalks at the base as soon as they start to grow to prevent leaf tip browning. Additionally lower light can cause the leaves to uncoil. To prevent this, add a grow light in the winter.
Available in a 4" pot.
