Sarcocaulon vanderietiae

• Rare and unusual succulent shrub, related to geraniums.
• Showy flowers can be pale pink or white.
• The thick branches are covered in small spines, and the tiny leaves may fall off in winter.
• Excellent for bonsai!

Care:

• Light: Bright with some direct sun (east, west or south window).
• Water: Water when the soil has completely dried out in spring and summer. In winter, water sparingly. Withhold water if the leaves begin to yellow.
• Fertilizer: Use a general purpose fertilizer such as Schultz Indoor Plant Food (10-15-10) up to twice monthly in spring and summer.
• Other tips: Grows best in an undersized pot. Use sharply-drained potting mix; we recommend Pro-Mix Cactus & Succulent Mix with extra perlite and small Orchiata added. This plant rots very easily when overwatered.
