Its ornamental, gracefully ascending-spreading to recurved leaves in a central rosette make it so popular. The many vegetative plant-lets are usually given away by the owners and this has resulted in the species being one of the most commonly used and popular house plants throughout the world.
The white-striped cultivars are probably more often grown than the original plant. In the garden, it grows best under trees or on shady embankments, especially in gardens in the Indian Ocean Coastal Belt. It is a fast grower. In other parts of the world, it can also be grown out-of-doors but is best cultivated in Mediterranean-type gardens where frost is not too severe (parts of California and the Mediterranean).The plant prefers partial shade, especially in hot dry climates. It should, therefore, be protected from full sun. Plants should reach flowering size within a year.
