Description:

Its name derives from the Latin word “deceptor” which means “swindler/cheater”, due to the fact that, when born in the middle of the stones, it camouflages itself and therefore is hardly visible. It is a small solitary succulent plant with low growth and columnar habit, which over time can cluster at the base. The leaves grow in overlapping pairs along the greenish-gray stem and are covered with a light white powder (puriniscence). During the winter period it blooms with small pink and fragrant flowers. Very suitable for decorating your centerpieces and your plant compositions.

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sunlight especially during the hottest hours of the day.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 7 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately and only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce it to once every two months in autumn and to suspend it completely in winter.

The best soil is a well draining and porous one, for example formed by a mix of peat and pumice so that water does not stagnate.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
