Caring Tips and Tricks:

1. Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, especially during hot summer months.
2. Watering: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
3. Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix to prevent waterlogged soil.
4. Temperature: Keep the plant in a warm environment, ideally between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Protect from frost and extreme cold.
5. Pruning: Trim leggy growth to encourage a compact, bushy appearance.
6. Propagation: Easily propagated from stem cuttings or offsets. Allow cuttings to callus before planting in well-draining soil.
7. Pest Control: Watch for common succulent pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
8. Fertilization: Feed sparingly with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing during the dormant winter months.
