Key Features:
✔ Thick, soft, velvety leaves with “toothy” edges like bear claws
✔ Compact grower – great for pots, desktops, or windowsills
✔ Occasionally produces bright orange bell-shaped flowers in spring/summer
✔ Native to South Africa – thrives in dry, sunny conditions
✔ A favourite among succulent lovers and collectors
Care Instructions:
-
Light: Loves bright, indirect light – can tolerate a few hours of direct sun (morning is best)
-
Watering: Water sparingly – allow soil to completely dry out between waterings
-
Soil: Requires gritty, well-draining succulent or cactus soil
-
Temperature: Prefers warmth – keep above 10°C, not frost-tolerant
-
Feeding: Use a diluted cactus feed once a month in growing season (spring/summer)

🌿 Tip: Overwatering is the quickest way to lose this cutie – always check the soil’s dryness before watering.
