Plant care:
Avoid direct sun rays, which may burn the plant; it is better to place it in a sheltered and bright location. The best option is the morning sunlight until 12.00 / 13.00, or the afternoon sunlight afer 15.00 / 16.00.
The plant prefers mild temperatures, it is advisable to shelter it when winter temperatures drop below 0°C.
Water moderately in summer, generally once a week, making sure the soil is dry before proceeding with a new watering. In winter, especially if the plant is placed in not very bright environments, it is recommended to water it only once a month, or when the soil is completely dry.
A porous soil with a slightly acidic pH is an optimal solution. We recommend a soil suitable for cacti, as long as these plants are not very demanding what regards the substrate.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
