Cactus soil mix with high sand and perlite content for maximum drainage and aeration.
Water sparingly during active growth (spring/summer), keep completely dry in winter dormancy to prevent root rot.
Requires full sun exposure; indoors place near south-facing window. Prevent scorching in peak summer heat if glass is too hot.
Apply diluted liquid fertilizer monthly only during growing season. Do not fertilize in autumn or winter.
Remove dead flower stalks carefully with gloves. No major pruning required; allow natural growth habit.
