Native to the sunlit terrains of South Africa, the Drosanthemum globuleux is a remarkable species in the Aizoaceae family, often lovingly referred to as the "candy plant" 🍬. This succulent is known for its ability to quickly form compact bushes of small branches, which mature into a charming, plump shrub-like appearance that is highly aesthetic.

Optimal Growing Conditions
- Light: Drosanthemum globuleux thrives in abundant light ☀️. It benefits from direct sunlight during spring and autumn, which are its peak growth periods. In summer, protect it from intense sunlight with light shading to prevent water stress.
- Temperature: Ideal between 10°C and 30°C. This hardy plant can endure brief summer dormancy during high temperatures but needs protection from frost, as winter temperatures should not drop below 5°C ❄️.
- Watering: Opt for moderate watering 💧. Wait until the peripheral leaves slightly wilt from lack of water before rehydrating, ensuring proper hydration without the risk of rot.
- Soil: Use well-draining soil, available in our store. When repotting, remove half of the original soil and replace it with fresh soil to encourage growth 🌱.
- Fertilization: Low-maintenance, this plant requires fertilization only during active growth and after flowering. A water-soluble or slow-release fertilizer will suffice to support its development 🌺.
