Plant Care

Light
Place in a spot with bright indirect or filtered light. The operculicaya can take bright indirect light to direct sunlight but too intense light in the afternoon will cause its leaves to turn crispy and dry out.

Water
Water when the soil mix has completely dry out. But don’t let it be fry too long with extended periods of drought. Despite this, the operculicaya will bounce back when watered even after its leaves turns crispy when dry.
