Care Instructions

Sunlight

Watering

Soil

• Type: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix. Add perlite or sand for better aeration.

• Protection: Avoid extreme heat or cold. Sudden temperature changes can stress the plant.

Fertilizing

• Schedule: Feed with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
• Note: No fertilization is needed in winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

• Dead Leaves: Remove any dead or wilted leaves to maintain appearance and prevent disease.
