Conophytum pageae InformationNative to Southern Namibia and South Africa, Conophytum has a compact growing habit and spreads horizontally around 3 feet wide, displaying a dense cluster.Daisy-like flowers appear anytime between autumn to early summer from the center and can be found in hues of pink or white. Conophytums look stunning when they bloom together. SunlightMost Conophytums require bright light. Place them in a spot that receives 4-5 hours of the bright morning sun. However, long exposure to the scorching afternoon sun might shrivel them.
SoilThis species thrives best in loamy, porous soil that drains away rapidly. You can use a good-quality potting mix designed for succulents or cacti. Alternatively, amend the soil with perlite, gravel, coarse sand, or birch chip to maintain the texture. Also, make sure the soil is not very rich in nutrients.
WaterConophytum pageae does not like to sit in water. Therefore, saturate the soil deeply but only when the growing medium looks completely dry. Watering it once in 3-4 days would be just fine. Also, avoid overhead watering or wetting the foliage.
