It prefers sunlight and can be cultivated in the sun throughout the year, but it will not die if placed in a cool area. It is more afraid of the cold and needs temperatures above zero to survive the winter. It likes loose, breathable and well-drained soil, and is intolerant of moisture. If it is very wet, the roots will easily rot and die.

2. Suitable soil

You can raise it like succulents. They are drought-tolerant, but they don’t like moisture, so the soil must be well-permeable and contain more particulate matter. There is no need to use good soil to raise it, peat and perlite will be fine. If these two substances are not available, then ordinary garden soil and coal slag will also work. The best thing is sandy soil. Mixing river sand into the soil can help it drain. Spreading gravel at the bottom of the flower pot can prevent the drainage holes from being blocked.
