• Watering: Water deeply only when the soil mix is completely dry during warm months. Reduce watering significantly during rainy or winter periods to prevent caudex and root rot.
• Soil & Potting: Requires extremely well-draining, gritty soil (cactus or succulent mix with coarse sand/perlite). Ensure containers have adequate drainage holes.
