Product information
The genus Chlorophytum is placed in the Anthericaceae family and comprises around 215 species found worldwide with the densest diversity in Africa and India. The genus name Chlorophytum is a combination of the two Greek words chloros, meaning green and phyton, meaning plant, i.e. “green plant”. The family Anthericaceae comprises 8 genera of which 2 occur in Africa, namely Anthericum and Chlorophytum. It can be difficult to distinguish between the genus Chlorophytum and the genus Trachyandra which belongs to the closely related family Asphodelaceae. A well-known species in the family Anthericaceae is Chlorophytum comosum (better known as ‘hen-and-chickens') which is also a popular garden plant.
