Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but adapts well to low-light environments. Avoid direct sunlight.
• Watering: Extremely drought-tolerant. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is its main enemy.
• Soil: Well-draining potting mix, such as one formulated for succulents or cacti.
• Humidity & Temperature: Thrives in typical indoor conditions (65-85°F) and low to moderate humidity.
• Fertilizing: Feed with a diluted balanced fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) once every 4-6 weeks during spring and summer. Avoid fertilizing in fall and winter.
• Toxicity: Keep away from pets and children, as it is toxic if ingested.
