📍 Native to southern Namibia. The reference locality is in the Great Karas Mountains. In this region, rain mainly falls in spring. It belongs to the Aizoaceae family.
🌡️USDA ZONE 8b - 10a. Can tolerate light frosts. The recommended minimum temperature is -2ºC. In winter, the substrate should remain dry.
☀️For healthy, stress-free growth, it needs partial shade or a PAR radiation intensity of 20 to 25 moles of photons daily.
🌸 Large central white flowers. Blooms between October and November.
💧Watering begins in spring as soon as the plant undergoes its annual shedding and the old leaves are reabsorbed. When high summer temperatures arrive between July and August, they enter eco-dormancy and watering should be stopped. Watering resumes in September and continues until the end of the flowering period. In November, watering is completely stopped to facilitate winter rest. Always let the substrate dry out between waterings.
🚀Nutrition: Its development improves with fertilizer high in assimilable Calcium and potassium, such as Desert CHOICE® Aizoaceae ( NPK (Ca-Mg) 6–5–15 (3–3))
