This pretty, curious, and intriguing bulbous plant forms an upright rosette of green leaves, slightly spiraled at the tips. We love it for its corkscrew-like appearance and small habit. It grows between 10 and 20 cm tall. In spring, it produces vanilla-scented, yellow and green flowers. After flowering, it goes dormant until the beginning of the following winter. During this period, it is recommended to significantly reduce watering frequency.
