Highlights
Gasteria carinata var. verrucosa (Jaarsveld): An easy indoor succulent with firm, tongue-shaped leaves with light speckling. The leaves can develop a reddish color when gently stressed by bright sunlight and drought. This variety stays distichous (in one plane, like a fan) instead of spiraling into a rosette. Look for coral colored flowers throughout the year.
Gasteria have low light and water requirements. They are one of the best types of succulents to grow indoors because they can tolerate low light conditions and still maintain their form and colors. Plant Gasteria in deep pots with drainage holes as they grow deep roots and will not tolerate standing water. Use a gritty, well-draining soil and water deeply, but only when the soil is fully dry. Protect from frost.
