Water when the soil is completely dry, especially in winter it may only need water once a month. Overwatering will kill them quickly as it can cause root rot. Like cacti, they prefer well draining sandier soil. Fertilize with diluted feed a couple of times over spring/summer, not in winter.

They can survive in low light, but have stronger patterning in sun. They grow best with 8 to 10 hours of indirect sunlight, too much sun can scorch. Keep out of draughts and they won't tolerate any frost.
