Guide
The species-level account. Cultivar pages build on this and say where they differ.
Pandanus amaryllifolius is a tropical shrub native to the Maluku islands, where it grows in warm, humid lowland conditions with bright, filtered light. It prefers consistently moist but never waterlogged soil; water when the top inch of mix has dried, and provide warmth and good ambient humidity. Avoid harsh direct sun and cold, dry air.
