Make sure you have a large/medium pot and a lot of room because this plant grows a lot. :)

Give this guy lots of sunlight if you want to see growth! I had mine in an east-facing window (with morning sun) for months with no change. As soon as I moved it to south sun it starting growing new leaves left and right! Pretty hardy and beautiful when blooming!

As long as it has the right conditions (which are easy to get) then it will grow well and be a lovely easy plant :)

Honestly I haven’t had much time with this plant I got it from my grandma a couple months ago. But from what I read it blooms easily and can go without watering for a certain period of time. From my experience so far this plant grows very quickly especially when facing a south window. I do think I’m going to be needing a bigger pot soon because of how much it’s grown though, but overall a very easy plant for a person who’s just getting into all the gardening and flowering hobbies.

Love this plant! So pretty! My friend has one and I wanted one, hers was growing little babies so she had to get more pots. I really love how elegant this plant is! Would definitely recommend

My cactus loves to be right up against my south facing window in a crowded pot. I water her when she dries out completely. She’s always either giving me flowers or new leaves. She’ll tell you when she’s unhappy by turning purple. I don’t use fertilizer. I just water her with my fish tank water.

So easy, place in a window and water when dry. I have 3 and they all just grow and grow, any time a piece falls off just plop in some water and it will root. This started as my great grandmas propagation and now a year later it’s this!
