Care Tips
Like all succulents it stores moisture in its foliage, stem or roots in the growing season so as to be able to survive periods of drought. Take care not to overwater or to let water settle in the rosette as this will cause stem rot, black marks on the leaves indicate this. This plant likes full sunshine and should be allowed to overwinter in cool, dry surroundings.
