Care

General Maintenance: This is an easy to take care of plant that requires little to no maintenance. Repot once the plant has grown to the point that you can not see any of the top of the soil, or if it becomes particularly root bound. Trim any dead/dying leaves at the base.

Temperature: Ideal growing temperature is 20°C – 24°C, but it will survive as long as temperatures remain above 15°C. Avoid sudden drafts or cold windowsills. 

Light: Full sun. Prefers about 6 hours of direct sun everyday. 

Watering: Low water needs. Water only once the soil has completely dried. During the winter leave mostly dry. Drought tolerant once established. 

Soil: Prefers a dry to average soil that is well-drained. Sandy and loamy soils work well (such as cactus soil). 

Fertilizer: Use a half-strength fertilizer sparingly during the growing season. Do not overfeed.
