#FEBAZKA
Frizzle sizzle, also known as corkscrew albuca, is a bulb succulent characterized by its green foliage, which has a curly growth habit.
During its winter growing season, it requires full sun conditions with moist but well-drained soil and temperatures between 60 and 75 degrees.
The tall, slender leaves have very tiny glandular hairs, and the overall appearance resembles grass, but the plant is part of the Asparagaceae family, rather than the Poaceae family.
