Care Tips

To keep your 'Onslow' looking pristine, ensure it receives bright, indirect light to partial direct sun. A high-porosity succulent potting mix is essential to provide excellent drainage and prevent moisture buildup around the roots. Water sparingly using the "soak and dry" method, ensuring the soil is completely dehydrated before the next hydration. With minimal effort, this gem will remain a sharp, stunning highlight in your indoor plant collection.
