Onderhoudsinstructies
Bear's Paw requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and low humidity. Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. Avoid overwatering as it can lead to root rot.Bodem
Cotyledon tomentosa prefers well-draining sandy soil. A cactus or succulent mix is ideal. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can be detrimental to the plant.Kunstmest
Fertilize Bear's Paw with a balanced succulent fertilizer, such as a 2-7-7 N-P-K formula, during the growing season. Apply the fertilizer sparingly, as over-fertilization can harm the plant.Verpotten

Propagate Bear's Paw through leaf or stem cuttings. Allow the cuttings to dry for a few days before planting them in well-draining soil. Water sparingly until new growth appears.Snoeien
Prune the plant to maintain its shape and remove any dead or damaged leaves. Pruning can be done during the growing season. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to make clean cuts.Toxiciteit
Cotyledon tomentosa is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The leaves contain compounds that can cause gastrointestinal distress. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.Aanvullend
