Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch, but allow it to drain completely. Overwatering is a common cause of root rot.

Reduce watering significantly during cooler, dormant periods to prevent waterlogged conditions. Ensure good air circulation around the plant.

Remove dead, damaged, or discolored leaves at the base of the plant as needed to maintain its aesthetic appeal and health. This also improves air circulation.

Use clean, sharp tools to make clean cuts and prevent disease introduction. No significant structural pruning is typically required.

Propagate by offsets (pups) that naturally form at the base of the mother plant. Carefully separate these offsets when they have developed their own root system.

Plant them in well-draining soil and water sparingly until established.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its current container. Use a gritty, well-draining potting mix, such as a cactus or succulent blend.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one, ensuring it has drainage holes.
