Description:

In nature it grows inside the cracks of the limestone escarpments of the Falaise de l'Ankarana mountain range, from which it got its name. It was first collected by H. Humbert in 1938. It is a very rare succulent plant with an unbranched stem. Its deciduous leaves are very particular, they have a light silver-white down on the edges, are green on the upper part and reddish on the lower one. In spring, at the apex of the plant, its numerous flowers bloom, which then leave space for new leaves.

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 8 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

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

The perfect soil is a highly draining and porous one, for example a mixture of peat and pumice so that it does not stagnate the water.

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