Product Details
Highlights
Faucaria tuberculosa (Groen & Hansen): Chunky, triangular leaves with distinctive, bumpy or "tubercled" surfaces. This subspecies has a variable appearance and some individuals have gentle teeth with tendrils lining their leaves. It is a compact, clumping species from South Africa and it produces large, dandelion-like blooms from late summer to fall that open each afternoon and close by nightfall.
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.
