Distinctive Features
- Leaves: Thick, fleshy leaves with a distinctive crinkled or wavy edge. The leaves are typically 3-5cm long (approximately 1.25-2 inches) and have a grey-green colour with reddish-brown markings.

Care Tips
- Light: Bright, indirect light is best. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. East- or west-facing windows are ideal.
