How to Grow and Care for Acrodon

Acrodon is a resilient succulent that thrives in well-draining soil and bright sunlight. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot. A key care point is ensuring acrodon is protected from frost, as it is not cold-hardy. Minimal fertilization is needed; applying a diluted cactus fertilizer during the growing season will suffice.
