Description:
It is a small succulent shrub with a solitary habit, occasionally branched, which has the particular characteristic of being semi-deciduous: under optimal climatic conditions it keeps its leaves throughout the year, while in colder winters it loses all or part of its foliage, while remaining alife. The pentagonal branches have small white scars, caused by the fall of the leaves, which stand out on the green of the stem. At the apex of the stems, glossy green leaves appear, which are fleshy and elongated, with white central veins. Flowering occurs in summer on long stems, blooming with small pale pink flowers.

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.
