Care & Maintenance Guide:
- Sun / Lighting: Thrives in full sun to partial shade. Outdoors, place in a bright location with direct sunlight; indoors, position near a sunny south- or west-facing window.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry during active growth in spring and summer. Reduce significantly in winter to avoid root rot.
- Soil Type: Requires a well-draining mineral cactus mix with perlite or pumice to ensure proper aeration and drainage. Optimal pH is slightly acidic to neutral (6.0–7.0).
- Nutrients & Fertilization: Feed with a balanced, low-nitrogen cactus fertilizer once a month during spring and summer; refrain from fertilizing during dormancy.
