Tylecodon buchholzianus is a winter-growing succulent shrub native to the arid regions of South Africa, particularly the Western and Northern Cape. Like other members of the genus Tylecodon, it is well adapted to long, dry summers and produces leaves only during the cooler growing season.

Characteristics:

• Forms a branching shrub with a thickened, often sculptural base.
• Stems may become woody and grey with age.
• Leaves are fleshy, green, and appear mainly in winter (active growth period).
• Produces tall flower stalks bearing small tubular flowers, usually greenish to yellowish or pinkish depending on form.
• The plant typically enters full dormancy in summer, shedding its leaves.

Cultivation:

• Winter-growing succulent.
• Requires very well-drained soil and a dry summer dormancy.
• Water moderately during autumn–spring growth.
• Keep almost completely dry in summer.
• Prefers full sun to bright light conditions.

Notes:

• Like many Tylecodon species, it contains toxic compounds and should not be consumed by animals or humans

Gasteria lilliputana is a tiny, yet striking succulent native to South Africa. This miniature plant features thick, fleshy leaves that form a dense rosette, with dark green to greyish-green coloring and distinctive white markings or spots. The leaves are rough to the touch, giving it a unique texture that stands out in succulent collections. In late winter or early spring, it produces small, tubular flowers in shades of pink or red, adding a pop of color to its compact form. Interesting fact: Despite its small size, Gasteria lilliputana is extremely hardy and can tolerate drought and neglect, making it an ideal choice for beginner succulent growers. Its slow-growing nature also means it requires minimal maintenance and thrives in bright, indirect light.
