Continue expanding your succulent knowledge! Gasteraloe is a rare type of succulent that strongly resembles an Aloe Vera plant. Succulents are a plant that can grow in the desert. For example, if the potting material fills X container then you should provide the pearl of strings with water that is only half full. It could become heavy, fall over or shoot out roots through drainage holes. After a few years, your succulent might begin to outgrow the container. It is possible to hang several pots up on the wall or cover your entire surface with these tiny green succulents.
