Light

  • Bright light to full sun is ideal. A south or west-facing window is perfect.

  • Indoors, provide at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight or supplement with a grow light.

Watering

  • Water moderately during active growth (typically fall to spring).

  • Let the soil dry out between waterings to prevent rot.

  • In summer dormancy, reduce watering or stop altogether if the leaves die back.

Soil

  • Use a well-draining mix—a cactus or succulent mix is ideal.

  • You can add extra perlite or pumice to improve drainage.

Temperature

  • Prefers temperatures between 15–24°C.

  • Protect from frost—below 40°F (4°C) can cause damage.

Humidity

  • Average household humidity is fine. No special needs here.

Fertilizing

  • Feed monthly during the growing season with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10 or similar).

  • Do not fertilize during dormancy.

Dormancy

  • After flowering (usually in late spring), it may go dormant.

  • Leaves may yellow or die back—this is normal.

  • Reduce watering and let it rest until new growth appears.

Flowering

  • Produces yellow, sweetly-scented flowers in spring.

  • Flowering can sometimes cause the leaf tips to brown—normal and harmless.

Potting

  • Repot every 2–3 years or when it outgrows its pot.

  • Choose a shallow pot with good drainage.
