Everfigs encompasses a group of succulent shrubs, typically found clinging to rocky outcrops in South Africa. Their fleshy, often brightly-colored leaves store water, an adaptation to arid environments. Small but vivid, star-shaped flowers bloom predominantly in spring, attracting a variety of pollinators despite their rugged surroundings. This survival strategy allows everfigs to thrive where moisture is scarce.
Propagation:
Propagation of everfigs can be achieved through cuttings or seeds. Key factors include optimal light, temperature, and drainage. Cuttings should callous before planting in well-draining soil, while seeds may require stratification. Overwatering can lead to root rot, making careful moisture management essential.
