Description

💧 Watering
Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. In Malta’s hot summers, reduce watering further to prevent root rot.

☀️ Light
Thrives in full sun and tolerates intense Maltese sunlight. Bright light encourages compact, healthy growth.

🍃 Foliage / Growth
Forms upright pads with small, fine glochids and a neat, branching habit. Slow to moderate growth in warm conditions.

🪴 Soil / Planting Mix
Requires a very well-draining cactus or sandy mix with added grit. Excellent drainage is essential year-round.

🌿 Fertilizer
Feed lightly once a month during spring and summer with a diluted cactus fertilizer. Avoid feeding in winter.

⚠️🐕🐈 Pet Safety
Glochids can cause irritation and are considered mildly toxic if ingested. Keep pets away from pads.

🌬️ Air Purifying
Primarily ornamental; contributes to drought-tolerant landscaping and improved outdoor environments.
