Lightly spotted leaves, light green in colour. Leaves swelling to form a bulbous base at the bottom of the plant. Many new offshoots growing. Had a 13cm ish flower spike with a small cluster of very small white (as I remember) flowers.

Best shown by a photo I think

Drought Smart Plants reply;
Hi Anthony, I’ve been asked about this little guy a couple of times, and so far, it’s remained unidentified.

Sorry I can’t help you with this one; I’ll find some more posts about the same plant and let you know in the comments.

Best of luck with your plant!
