Main characteristics:

• Appearance: Forms dense rosettes, usually 6-10 cm in diameter. The leaves are thick, fleshy, and have a boat-like shape (hence the name cymbiformis).

• Soil: A well-drained mix, specific for cacti and succulents.

• Temperature: Tolerates heat well, but does not withstand temperatures below 5°C for long periods.

• Propagation: It can be easily propagated by separating the pups that grow at the base of the mother plant.
