Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common cause of failure. Reduce watering significantly during winter dormancy to prevent root rot.

Water thoroughly when you do water, but ensure excellent drainage.

Pruning is generally minimal. Remove any dead or damaged leaves at the base. If the plant becomes leggy, you can prune it back to encourage bushier growth. Cuttings from pruning can be used for propagation.

Ensure tools are clean to prevent disease.

Easily propagated from stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. Allow cuttings to callus over for a few days before planting in well-draining soil. Roots will form within a few weeks, especially in warmer temperatures.

Water sparingly after planting until new growth appears.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its pot, typically in spring. Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix. Choose a pot with drainage holes.

Handle the plant gently to avoid damaging its delicate roots and fleshy leaves.
