Full description and specifications

Cyrtanthus spiralis, also known as Fire Lily, is a bulbous plant native to South Africa. It is prized for its spectacular red or orange flowers, which have a unique spiral shape.

Care:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. The ideal placement is near a window where it receives filtered sunlight, avoiding direct exposure that can burn the leaves.
  • Water: Watering should be done sparingly, waiting for the first few inches of soil to dry between waterings. Susceptibility to excess water requires good drainage to prevent bulbs from rotting.
  • Soil: A well-draining mix is ​​essential, ideally one designed for bulbous plants or cacti, which promotes drainage and prevents water stagnation.
  • Temperature and Humidity: Prefers warm and moderate temperatures, between 18°C ​​and 25°C, with moderate humidity. It must be protected from low temperatures and frost.
  • Fertilizer: Fertilization can be carried out during the period of active growth with a balanced fertilizer, diluted to half the recommended strength, once a month.

Height with pots included: approx. 15 cm
