Quick Care Guide

Care Difficulty: This plant has moderate care needs.

Light requirements: Likes a bright spot with some direct sunlight being beneficial. A sunny south or west facing windowsill is the ideal place.

Watering: Like many succulents allow the soil to dry out between waterings, reducing further in winter. Do not let this plant sit in water as this will increase the chances of root rot. The best indicator for watering is when the leaves have slightly shrivelled.

Humidity: Does not need any additional humidity so will work well in average household conditions.

Toxicity: Non toxic to humans and pets

Feeding: Does not need feeding.

Repotting: Repot when it has outgrown its current container. Use a Cactus and succulent mix with added gravel and pot up one size larger in a container with good drainage.
