☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect sunlight
• Tolerates some direct morning sun, but avoid harsh afternoon rays
• Indoors: place near a south or east-facing window

💧 Watering

• Water only when soil is completely dry
• About once every 2–3 weeks, less in winter
• Do not overwater – very prone to root rot
• Use the “soak and dry” method

🌱 Soil

• Requires well-draining cactus or succulent mix
• Add extra perlite or pumice for better drainage
• Use pots with drainage holes

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

• Ideal range: 18–27°C (65–80°F)
• Protect from frost – not cold-hardy
• Low humidity is fine; thrives in dry environments

🌸 Flowering

• May produce tiny, cinnamon-scented white flowers in ideal conditions
• Blooms typically in late summer to fall

🪴 Propagation

• Easily propagated from stem cuttings
• Allow cut ends to callous before planting in dry soil

🐾 Pet Safety

• Toxic to pets if ingested – keep away from cats and dogs

Pro Tip: Rotate your pot occasionally for even growth and to prevent stretching (etiolation). If it starts looking sparse, trim and replant cuttings to fill in.
