Care Tips

• Water: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings, then water thoroughly. As a succulent, it's highly susceptible to rot from overwatering. Reduce watering significantly in winter.

• Humidity: Tolerates average household humidity.

• Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix. Excellent drainage is essential.

• Temperature: Thrives in average room temperatures between 18-24°C (65-75°F). Protect from cold drafts.

• Feeding: Fertilize sparingly, if at all. A diluted succulent fertilizer once or twice during the spring and summer growing seasons is sufficient.

• Pruning: Trim vines to encourage bushier growth or to maintain desired length. Cuttings can be easily rooted.
