At first sight it looks a lot like Astroloba herrei, from which it differs for its beautiful flowers, which are puffed up and wrinkled (A. herrei has non-wrinkled flowers), of a tender white-cream color. The plant blooms in the period between December and May.

Plant care:
It likes semi-sunny or semi-shaded areas, avoiding direct sun rays during the hottest hours.
Coming from arid areas, it loves high temperatures, especially if sheltered from the direct sun. It is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.
It needs water only when the soil is completely dry. In winter it is advisable to completely suspend watering.
A well-draining substrate is an optimal solution, consisting of lapilli and pumice, combined with peat which facilitates growth.
