This hardy succulent is easy to grow but requires specific care to maintain its fuzzy texture and vibrant tips. Follow these guidelines for success.

Watering

* Water only when the soil is completely dry every 2-3 weeks in summer, sparingly in winter.

* Ensure pots have drainage holes to avoid waterlogging.

Light
