Care Guide
This is not a fussy plant to care for. It can handle quite a bit of light, but should ideally be kept under 40% shade cloth. It prefers a gritty mix with components like Ibaraki Akadama and Hyuga pumice, as its roots are sensitive to too much water. Water well throughout the year, but make sure the soil dries between waterings.
Growing season
Autumn and winter.
