Glottiphyllum oligocarpum
Glottiphyllum oligocarpum is a compact, winter-growing mesemb forming low clumps of thick, tongue-shaped leaves. It is valued for its neat growth habit and bright yellow daisy-like flowers, which appear during the cooler months.
Care
- Light: Full sun to bright light. Some light shade may be beneficial in very hot conditions.
- Water: Water sparingly during active growth in autumn and winter, allowing the mix to dry fully between watering. Keep mostly dry through summer dormancy.
- Temperature: Prefers cool to mild conditions while growing. Protect from heavy or prolonged frost.
- Potting Media: Very free-draining, mineral-based mix. Shallow pots suit the growth habit.
- Feeding: Minimal feeding during active growth only. Excess fertiliser can cause soft, stretched growth.
Key Characteristics
- Plant type: Low-growing clumping succulent
- Foliage: Thick, flattened, tongue-shaped leaves
- Flower colour: Bright yellow
- Flower size: Approximately 3–4 cm
- Flowering season: Autumn to winter
- Growth rate: Slow to moderate
