Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common cause of root rot. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry, ensuring excess water drains away.

Reduce watering significantly during the cooler, dormant months of winter.

Remove dead, damaged, or yellowing leaves at the base of the plant using clean, sharp shears or a knife. This helps maintain the plant's aesthetic appeal and redirects energy to new growth.

Minimal pruning is typically required for this species.

Propagate by division or leaf cuttings. For division, carefully separate rhizomes with at least one leaf during repotting.

For leaf cuttings, take a healthy leaf, cut it into 5-10 cm sections, and allow the cuts to callus over before planting in well-draining soil.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a cactus or succulent blend.

Repotting is best done in spring.
