Good to Know
- Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can enhance the coral colouring but avoid excessive sun exposure to prevent leaf scorching.
- Water: Prefers dry conditions. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch, and then allow it to dry out completely before the next watering.
- Soil: Best grown in well-draining, aerated soil. A cactus or succulent mix is ideal to ensure proper drainage and prevent root rot.
- Temperature: Enjoys a warm environment. Protect from cold drafts and frost.
- Humidity: Tolerates average indoor humidity levels. Avoid overly humid conditions.
- Growth: Slow to moderate growth rate, can develop into a lush, branching shrub over time.
- Origin: Native to South Africa, this plant is known for its resilience and easy-care nature.
