Xeronema Overview
This genus consists of robust, tufted perennials with short, creeping rootstocks grown for their flowers. They produce brilliant red flowers which are borne on one-sided racemes amongst sword-shaped leaves. They are frost tender, min 10C, and require sun or partial shade with humus-rich, well drained soil. Propagation is by seeds or division in the spring.
