description_en: Genus of about 250 species of evergreen, rhizomatous perennials with fibrous or fleshy roots. Those in cultivation are from a variety of habitats in South Africa and W. Africa, and are clump-forming, with linear, lance-shaped, ovate, or strap-shaped, basal leaves. In summer, they bear arching racemes or panicles of tiny, 6-petalled flowers, and sometimes produce plantlets. In frost-prone areas, grow in containers and hanging baskets in a cool or temperate conservatory; they are also popular foliage houseplants, tolerant of a wide range of conditions. In warmer areas, use in a border or as ground cover.
