Description

💧 Watering
Water sparingly; allow soil to dry completely between waterings.
In Malta’s climate, natural rainfall is often sufficient outdoors.
Increase light watering only during active growth (autumn–winter).

☀️ Sunlight
Thrives in full sun.
Ideal for open gardens, rock gardens, and exposed coastal areas.
Tolerates light partial shade.

🍃 Foliage / 🌸 Flowering
Produces long green strap-like leaves in autumn–winter, which die back in spring.
Spectacular tall spikes of white to pale pink flowers in late summer–early autumn.
Highly ornamental and drought tolerant once established.

🪴 Potting Mix
Prefers very well-draining soil: sandy or stony Mediterranean soil is ideal.
In pots, use cactus mix with added sand or grit.

🌿 Fertilizer
Generally not required in garden soil.
In pots, feed once in early autumn with a light balanced fertilizer.

🚫🐕🐈 Pet Safety
Highly toxic to cats, dogs, and humans if ingested. All parts contain potent cardiac glycosides.
Keep well away from pets and children.

🌿 Additional Notes
Perfectly adapted to Malta’s dry summers and mild winters.

Dies back naturally in summer. This is normal dormancy.
Excellent for dry gardens, slopes, and low-maintenance Mediterranean landscapes.
