    Features

    Say hello to ‘Mini Mammoth’–one of the cutest little succulents from South Africa! ‘Mini Mammoth’ forms tight rosettes of slender, tusk-shaped leaves. What makes this plant even more adorable is the touchably soft, silvery velvet coating on each leaf. Most will find it hard to resist reaching out to pet your ‘Mini Mammoth’! These plants are as tough as their namesake and demand little in the way of water and fertilizer.  Give them a sunny window and well-draining soil and your miniature mastodon, in plant form, will be happy!

    Maintenance Notes: 
    • For optimal performance, keep your Succulent at 60-85°F (15-29°C). 
    • Succulents love sunlight, and will perform best in a bright, sunny location that receives 4-6 hours of sunlight per day.  A windowsill or position with sunny southern exposure is ideal. 
    • If your succulent is getting leggy or leaning to one side, it is stretching for sunlight. Move it to a brighter location and rotate your plant regularly to ensure even growth.
    • Succulents are drought-tolerant, and prefer to dry out in between waterings. 
    • Feed your Succulent once per month at half strength when it is actively growing. Reduce frequency of fertilization in the winter months. 
    • Protect furniture when watering & fertilizing.
    • Succulents grow best in a Cactus & Succulent Soil Mix or in all-purpose potting mix with added sand and perlite to ensure sharp drainage.
