Care Guide
Light
Place in a bright location with indirect sunlight or partial shade. Gentle morning sun can help maintain strong growth, but protect the plant from harsh afternoon heat to prevent damage.
Watering
Allow the soil to dry completely between watering. During active growth, water deeply but less frequently. Reduce watering during cooler months when growth slows.
Soil
Use a free-draining cactus or succulent mix. A gritty soil blend helps prevent excess moisture around the roots and supports healthier growth.
Temperature
This plant prefers warm conditions and should be protected from frost and extended cold periods.
Pot Selection
Choose a pot with drainage holes to prevent water buildup. Its compact upright form works well in decorative containers and succulent arrangements.
