Foliage
Features distinctive, thick, waxy, heart-shaped leaves. The deep green leaves often have a dimpled or puckered texture in the center and may be lightly speckled with silvery flecks.
Flowering Period & Fruit
Once mature, it produces ball-shaped clusters of fuzzy, star-shaped, pale pink flowers with a reddish corona. The blooms have a sweet, often chocolate-like fragrance, especially in the evening.
Sun Tolerance
Prefers bright, indirect light. A spot with some gentle, direct morning sun can encourage flowering. Protect from hot, intense afternoon sun.
Maintenance
Easy. A very drought-tolerant plant perfect for beginners. Water thoroughly only when the soil has dried out completely. It thrives and flowers best when kept pot-bound. Do not remove old flower spurs (peduncles).
Root System
An epiphytic root system that requires a very chunky, airy, and fast-draining potting mix to prevent rot.
