Description:

The name of this species literally means "similar to Mesembryanthemum", referring to the similarity of the leaves with this genus. It is a succulent shrub that is not very tall, with green stems that tend to become woody with growth, on which graceful rosettes of banana-shaped leaves grow, pointed at the apex and that are not very long. The foliage takes on a light green color, often enriched by reddish shades on the tips; the white appearance is accentuated by the dense and soft whitish bristles that cover the entire skin, giving the plant a great pleasantness to the touch and a beauty that is accentuated, when its small bell-shaped white flowers bloom.

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.
