PLANTING AND CARE
The Hottentot needs bright light but not direct sunlight as this will burn the plant. It needs soil that is well drained and you should water moderately with a small amount of water waiting for the soil to dry well between each irrigation. Over watering will kill the plant.
Feed with liquid succulent fertilizer monthly during spring and summer.
