Product Details

Highlights

Faucaria bosscheana (Schwantes): A small mesemb with a bright white outline to its glaucous green leaves. It clumps low to the ground and is extraordinarily drought-tolerant. Like other Faucaria, this species blooms with lemon yellow flowers in the spring.

Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need ample sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
