Fockea Multiflora
Fockea multiflora is native to the dry and desert regions of South Africa and Namibia. The plant often grows in sandy soils and is adapted to the dry climate. It needs a sunny location with direct sunlight, especially in the cooler months. In summer, some shade from the hot afternoon sun can be beneficial. The plant thrives at warm temperatures between 20°C and 30°C. In cold regions it should be overwintered indoors or protected from frost. As with most succulents, watering sparingly is crucial. Wait until the top layer of soil has dried completely before watering again. Reduce watering further in winter. Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix for growing Fockea multiflora. You can fertilise the plant once a month during the active growth phase with a diluted succulent fertiliser. Fockea multiflora can be propagated by cuttings or seeds. Potted in a self-mixed permeable organic substrate in a clay pot; repotting only desired in 3-4 years; cultivated for several years in my caudex plant collection; not over-fertilised, therefore top healthy and robust (100% organic quality before quantity); already with a very nice thick caudex.
Fockea multiflora is a fascinating plant that with the right care and attention can become a remarkable addition to your succulent collection.
