Each plant is unique. Size, shape, fullness, and variegation will vary.

Gerrardanthus macrorhizus (Big Foot Caudex). Native to arid regions of Africa, where it grows in rocky, fast-draining soil with intense sun and long dry periods. The swollen caudex stores water, allowing it to survive drought cycles. This plant is grown for its thick base and trailing vines. Leaves are small and green, emerging from long, climbing stems.

Light requirements.
Prefers south and west windows.
Place at the window.
Grow lights 5000K–6500K.
8–12 inches from canopy.
Foot-candles: 1,500–3,000 for active vine growth.

Watering & environment.
Allow soil to fully dry out between watering.
Use a chopstick or moisture meter to confirm the root zone is completely dry before watering again.
Prefers low humidity and strong airflow.

What your plant is telling you.
Needs water: vines soften and lose tension.
Too wet: caudex becomes soft, risk of rot.
Light issues: weak, thin vines and slow growth indicate low light.

I love the smaller plant sizes because I love watching them grow. The key to that is a strong root system and Mel definitely came through with a great plant with a good root system!

This is my second order from the rooted plant shop. My first order came quickly, packaged well and that plant has never given me any issues. That is why I ordered again and this experience was no different. I check her website often to see if she has any of my wishlist plants because if I can get them from her shop i know I’m getting a healthy plant and I fuss free experience.
