Description:
Pretty succulent, whose slender stems do not exceed 15-20 cm in height, tending to prostrate towards the ground and root easily. The epidermis takes on an iridescent light green hue, rather bright and made even more "alive" by the multiple soft and thin teeth that cover it along the slightly protruding ribs. Between the stems, in the height of summer, extremely showy flowers consisting of 5 points, of a beautiful red-purple hue and covered with three-dimensional glands bloom: a real jewel that will certainly not go unnoticed in your homes!

Plant care:
It requires an exposure to full sun. However, it can be placed in a partially shaded area only if it still receives a lot of light throughout the year.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 5 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.
Water moderately in spring and autumn but only when the soil is completely dry, reduce watering to once every two months in summer and suspend it completely in winter.
The best soil is a well-draining one, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
