Highlights
Stomatium mustellinum (Salm-Dyck): A clumping species of bumpy, blue-green leaves lined with tiny teeth. The genus name comes from the Greek word stomation or "open mouth," in reference to the toothy, jaw-like form of the plant. This species grows well in cultivation and tends to bloom in spring and summer. Its fragrant, yellow flowers have lots of tiny petals and open from late afternoon to midnight.
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 bright sunlight, good 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.
