Bio

It does not need lots of water, but during growing season, it can enjoy lots of water. Water it a bit regularly in a container. Its roots will swell within the soil, and you will simply know that is the case when you repot the plant. Similar to caudiciforms, this plant enjoys a fast-draining potting soil. Avoid peat when possible, and amend the soil with drainage material such as for example pumice, Commiphoria kataf expanded shale, perlite, or even a similar product. In cold winters, the plant could be more or less deciduous, but will remain evergreen in warmer locations. Avoid watering during periods of dormancy.
