Gasteria 'Mufasa'
Gasteria 'Mufasa' is a compact succulent with thick, triangular green leaves arranged in a dense rosette. Raised white spots cover the foliage, while small white teeth line the leaf edges, giving the plant a distinctive textured appearance.
Well suited to bright indoor spaces, this easy-care plant adds shape and interest to windowsills, desks and small succulent displays. Its fleshy leaves store water, keeping watering requirements modest. Grow in free-draining compost and provide bright, indirect light, with protection from intense midday sunshine.
- Other names: Mufasa Gasteria, Ox Tongue Plant
- Useful to know: Non-toxic - safe around pets and children
- Feature: Sculptural rosettes with raised white spots and finely toothed leaf edges
- Eventual height: Approximately 15-20cm
- Origins: Cultivated variety; the genus originates from southern Africa
Gasteria Care
Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Gentle morning sunshine is suitable once acclimatised, but protect from intense midday sun through glass.
Water: Allow the compost to dry thoroughly between waterings, then water well and let excess drain away. Avoid water collecting between the leaves and never leave the pot standing in water.
Humidity: Normal household humidity is suitable. Misting is unnecessary; provide good air circulation.
Temperature: Temperatures of 18-25°C are ideal. Keep above 10°C and protect from frost and cold draughts.
Feeding: Apply a cactus and succulent fertiliser during active growth, following the manufacturer's instructions. Do not feed when growth slows in winter.
Repotting: Use free-draining cactus and succulent compost in a pot with drainage holes. Repot when the roots have filled the container, choosing a pot only slightly larger.
Winter care: Keep in a bright position and reduce watering considerably, giving just enough to prevent excessive leaf shrivelling.
Experience level: Easy
