golden Natal lily

Under glass grow in loam-based potting compost with added leaf mould and grit, in bright filtered light with shade from hot sun. Water freely in summer and keep barely moist in winter. Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser weekly when in growth up to flower bud formation. Do not repot regularly as these plants resent root disturbance and need a restricted root run to encourage flowering

No pruning required

Propagate by seed at 16-21°C as soon as ripe or by division in late winter or early spring

mealybugs may be a problem

Generally disease free
