Silver Squill Trying to Bloom? I See Some Stalks Coming Already - Inside As A Houseplant in Ohio

🌱 How to Care for Silver Squill as a Houseplant
☀️ Light
• Prefers bright, indirect light.
• Tolerates some direct sun, which can enhance its silver mottling.
• Thrives in average indoor temperatures.
💧 Water
• Water sparingly. Allow the soil to dry between waterings.
• Overwatering is the most common issue because it’s a bulbous plant that stores moisture.
🪴 Soil & Potting
• Needs well‑draining soil—a cactus/succulent mix works well.
• Bulbs often sit partially above the soil, which is normal.
🌡️ Humidity & Temperature
• Average household humidity is fine.
• Prefers warm conditions but tolerates a range of indoor temperatures.
🌿 Growth Habit
• Forms dense clusters of bulbs over time, creating a colony-like clump.
🌸 When Silver Squill Blooms
Silver squill typically blooms in summer, producing:
• Thin pinkish stems
• Small greenish flowers arranged along the stalk
Blooming indoors depends on:
• Adequate light
• A slight winter rest (cooler temps + reduced watering)
• A mature, well‑established bulb cluster
