Introducing the Veltheimia bracteata, known as forest lily, which is a beautiful flowering plant that belongs to the family Asparagaceae. Native to the Western Cape region of South Africa, it gets its name forest lily because it is often found growing in the shady understory of forests. It is also known as the Cape Lily plant or Unicorn root.  

The forest lily plant can grow as an evergreen plant in frost-free areas with consistent rainfall throughout the year. The plant can grow up to 1 foot tall and 2 feet wide.

A South African semi-deciduous winter bulb produces glossy green leaves with wavy margins. The leaves are long and strap-like, and the flowers are clustered on a tall stalk. 


The Veltheimia bracteata bulb blooms in the winter and is actively growing during the cold months, and its blossoms appear in late winter or early spring.

The flowers are usually pink or reddish in color and have a trumpet-like shape.

After flowering, when regrowth begins, the plant will go dormant for some time.

In late summer and early autumn, new leaves will emerge.

Before it blooms, the buds stand upright.

They will continue to arch outward as they grow.  When the buds open, they'll be pointing down.

When it comes to Veletheimias bracteate care, it is a drought-tolerant plant that can be grown in light shade and is ideal for shade gardens. It can be nearly evergreen in the summer but will rot if the soil doesn't drain well. To grow, allow the soil to dry out in the summer, with new foliage emerging in the fall. During summer dormancy, the soil should be kept dry, and watering should be resumed when new growth is visible.  

The forest lily plant is easy to grow outdoors in shaded areas in USDA zones 9-11, with occasional to infrequent irrigation in the Mediterranean climate.  However, the New York Botanical Garden Encyclopedia of Horticulture recommends growing it indoors in other climates, ensuring a temperature between 50 and 55° F from fall to spring. If you live in a colder region, you can grow it as a houseplant or in a greenhouse. 

When it comes to propagation, the forest lily can be propagated through offsets or bulb division. You can separate the offsets from the parent plant and plant them in a well-draining potting mix. It may take a couple of years for the new plants to reach maturity and start blooming.

Feels nice and looks great
Size: 80% Tenkeyless, Size: 80% Tenkeyless
I bought this wrist rest in like new condition for $6 and I will say it’s 100% worth MSRP at $15-20. The weight is nice, it doesn’t slip on my mousepad. It’s very comfortable to rest my palms and wrist on. The sizing pairs well with my 80% keyboard. It functions as it should. I use this at a stand up desk on an industrial shop floor to help put my wrist at a better angle and it works perfect.

Decent; does the job
Size: 100% Standard
Cushion feels very porous and thin. I suppose you can call it memory foam because it basically sunk where I usually rest my wrist and has not returned to its original shape (lol). The small rubber pads on the underside help a bit but slip resistance would probably be better if they covered a larger area. Overall, it's not bad for sub $20 full size kb wrist rest.

Is does the job, love it.
Size: 60% Compact
Is really comfy, it does the job, you can't go wrong with it. Just buy it if you have a 75% keyboard or less because is not long. For me is not a problem.

Nice wrist rest
Size: 100% Standard
Comfortable angle, solid enough to not move around but soft enough to be good for long term usage.

Excellent wrist rest, BUT not for me
I'm rating this wrist rest 5 stars despite the fact that it's not for me. The reason that it is not for me is simple: My palms get very sweaty, and this makes my palms stick to the wrist rest, making it hard to move my hands around. This is an inherent limitation of the fact that it is made out of wood, and drove me to the 17" x 4" x 0.75" foam wrist rest from Grifiti instead. If you don't have sweaty palms, however, this wrist rest is perfect. It is 4 inches deep instead of the typical 3.1 inches, it is the perfect height and tapered just so for maximum comfort, the wood (Golden Oak color) is beautiful, and the engraved logo is tasteful and non-intrusive.
