Provide at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and intense color development. Protect from intense, scorching afternoon sun during peak summer to prevent leaf burn. Insufficient light leads to stretching (etiolation) and faded colors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size:16px;\"\u003e• Watering: Crucially, follow the 'Soak and Dry' method. Water thoroughly only when the soil is completely dry, and ensure all excess water drains away freely. Significantly reduce watering frequency during winter when the plant is semi-dormant to prevent root rot.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size:16px;\"\u003e• Soil \u0026amp; Pot: Must be planted in a very well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix.
