Loves positions in full sun, making sure that it does not receive too much water or moisture.
It prefers mild or warm temperatures, during which it will show off its blooms; however it survives without problems also to rigid winters going into vegetative rest.
Few waterings are recommended, sparse and regular in summer. In winter, however, it is preferable to completely suspend the water supply.
It is optimal a substrate consisting of soil specific for cacti and pumice, to make it more porous and therefore well draining, so as to avoid water stagnation.
It does not need frequent fertilizations, it will be sufficient to dilute the liquid fertilizer with the water of the waterings once a year.
