Maximum height: In nature it can reach 1.5-2 metres, while in pot cultivation it tends to remain more compact (around 30-60 cm in height of the caudex). Uses: Primarily ornamental and collectible. Perfect for rock gardens in suitable climates, greenhouses, conservatories, or as a potted houseplant for lovers of collectible succulents. Organoleptic/Morphological Aspects: Characterized by a smooth, gray-green, globose or fusiform caudex. The leaves are bright green, narrow, and clustered at the tips of the branches. The flowers, pure white or cream with a bright yellow throat, generally appear in spring or summer, offering a remarkable visual spectacle. Hardiness and Origin: Native to northwestern Madagascar, it is a species endemic to dry deciduous forest areas. It requires protection from frost and temperatures no lower than 10-15°C. Recommended Sowing Period: In spring or early summer, when temperatures are consistently mild or warm (25-30°C). Optimal Germination Conditions: Requires a warm, humid but well-ventilated environment. Sowing should take place in a light, sterilized substrate, maintaining constant humidity but not waterlogging. Soil Type: It prefers a very well-drained substrate, specific for cacti and succulents, with a good percentage of coarse sand, pumice or perlite to prevent water stagnation. Recommended Exposure: Full sun or bright partial shade. Once germinated and acclimated, the mature plant benefits from plenty of direct sunlight. Germination Times: Variable, usually 1 to 4 weeks, but may extend depending on environmental conditions.
