Give it bright light, sharply draining soil, thorough but infrequent watering, low humidity, and protection from frost, and it can remain an attractive feature in an indoor succulent collection or warm outdoor garden for many years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"EOP Selected SCXW82221551 BCX0\" data-ccp-props=\"{}\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Planet Desert","offers":[{"title":"4\" Pot","offer_id":67684824023283,"sku":"3893","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/5384\/files\/1-Collection-Image-Gasteraloe-_spirit_-4-inch_6.jpg?v=1791528071","url":"https:\/\/planetdesert.com\/products\/gasteraloe-spirit-of-88","provider":"Planet Desert","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
