Faucaria
Description
Faucaria subintegra is a small, clump-forming succulent, commonly referred to as the tiger jaws. Its leaves are fleshy and triangular, with toothed margins, resembling the jaws of a tiger. The leaves are typically green but can take on reddish hues under stress or bright sunlight. This plant produces bright yellow, daisy-like flowers, typically in the autumn months. It thrives in well-draining, gritty soil and prefers full sun to partial shade. Be careful not to overwater, as it is highly susceptible to rot. Provide bright light and ensure the soil dries out completely between waterings.
