📌 Note

The shape, rosette density, leaf length and pattern intensity may naturally vary from one specimen to another.

The leaves are rigid, and the tips and edges may show minor drying, scratches, bends or other cosmetic imperfections resulting from growth, handling or transport. These aspects do not normally affect the plant's viability.

Avoid overwatering and water stagnation in the pot or in the centre of the rosette.
