Planting & Care

Sow seeds in a well-draining seed-starting mix, barely covering them with soil. Keep the medium lightly moist but not soggy, and provide warmth and bright, indirect light. Germination typically occurs within 1-3 weeks. Once seedlings have developed a few true leaves, transplant them into individual pots with cactus mix.

Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Feed with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season. Protect from frost and bring containers indoors during cold weather.
