Green Thumb Guide

Grows easily in a variety of well draining soils. Plant in a spot that will receive shade during the hottest part of the day. Also grows well indoors as a houseplant when provided enough light. Feed sparingly with a cactus and succulent fertilizer. Clear away dead foliage as needed.
