Fred is one of those weird mutations that makes no sense in the pant world. Strange, highly variable bubbles of growth form from pink centres, plants are totally spineless and are soft to touch. Fred is not an easy plant to keep and must remain protected from the elements.
Position - best in shaded, protected positions outdoors. Indoors only in sunny positions otherwise they will lose their nice shape and eventually rot.
Watering - can be watered all year rourd and grow fastest in the warmer months. Plants will survive without water for very long periods and remain compact when dry.
Feeding - 25% of recommended dosage monthly in growing period. The less fertiliser, the better the shape of the plant. Fertilisers high in nitrogen can produce larger plants with less colour.
Repotting - can be left to overgrow their pots, or repotted in the warmer months in almost any well drained potting mix.
