Description:

It is a particular shrub-like succulent plant. It produces a sturdy and fleshy stem, covered with a brown bark, on which thick gnarled branches grow. These branches dry out after the flowering period and form a protective layer, which at first sight resembles a sieve, which is why in the areas of its origin it is often called "sifkop" ("sieve head"). At the top of its caudiciform stem elliptical leaves appear, up to 5 cm long and 7 mm wide, that are of a glaucous green color. The flowering period is in winter, when its yellowish-green urn-shaped flowers bloom. Tylecodon reticulatus is a perfect plant to adorn rooms of any style.

Plant care:

It requires a lot of brightness during all seasons and rather airy places.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 6 °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 the plant once a week in spring and summer, once a month in autumn and to suspend watering completely in winter.

The best option is a soil suitable for cacti, even better if further mixed with pumice or lapilli.

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