✂️ Care
Gently rinse off the gel under lukewarm water and plant the stems in groups of 5–7 in the substrate. Sufficient light and CO₂ are essential for compact, branched growth. Prune regularly; cut tops can be replanted. Liquid fertilizer such as Sera Florena supports healthy growth.
💡 Planter's tip
Plant in groups of 5–7 stems for an impressive pine forest effect in the background. The silver-grey shimmer on the underside of the leaves gives a unique, three-dimensional effect.
