General care

  • Light: Bright position, adjusting sun exposure to the species and acclimatisation.
  • Watering: Water after the mix dries, accounting for rain outdoors.
  • Compost: Free-draining mix in a pot or soil that does not hold water around roots.
  • Temperature: Check each species' cold tolerance and protect sensitive forms from frost.
  • Maintenance: Allow room for spreading growth and remove dry parts without leaving standing water.
