🌞 Light
- Prefers bright, indirect light.
- Can tolerate low light, but growth may slow.
- Avoid direct sunlight, especially harsh afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves.
💧 Watering
- Water when the top 1–2 inches (2–5 cm) of soil feels dry.
- It’s better to underwater than overwater. The thick leaves store water, making it drought-tolerant.
- Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent root rot.
🌡️ Temperature & Humidity
- Ideal temperature: 65–75°F (18–24°C).
- Avoid cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
- Likes moderate humidity, but tolerates average home conditions well.
🌱 Soil
- Use a well-draining potting mix—cactus or succulent mix works well.
- Add perlite or sand if your mix retains too much moisture.
🌿 Fertilizing
- Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
- Reduce or skip feeding in fall and winter when growth slows.
✂️ Pruning & Maintenance
- Prune occasionally to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth.
- Wipe leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them shiny.
🔁 Propagation
- Easy to propagate via stem or leaf cuttings in water or soil.
