Pro Tip
This plant likes to be root-bound, so avoid repotting too often. Its slow growth means it will keep its shape for years with very little intervention.
-
Light and Placement
Grows best in bright, indirect light but will tolerate low light. It can also handle some direct sun. Its compact size and unique shape make it ideal for desks, windowsills, or small shelves where you want a bold visual accent.
-
Watering and Care
Water sparingly. Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. This plant stores water in its thick leaves and prefers to stay on the dry side. Use a fast-draining succulent or cactus mix, and avoid letting water sit at the base of the leaves.

Growth and Size
Slow-growing and compact. Typically stays under 10 inches tall and wide, making it an excellent choice for small spaces. Leaves grow upward in a symmetrical fan shape.
