Faucaria tigrina ‘Tiger Jaws’ — Toothed Succulent

Description

Faucaria tigrina, or Tiger Jaws, is a small succulent with thick green leaves and soft tooth-like edges. It stays compact and can produce bright yellow flowers in the right light.

Bright Light and Fast Drainage

Give Tiger Jaws bright light and gritty soil that drains fast. Let the soil dry well before you water again. For another low-growing succulent, see Aloinopsis schooneesii.

Simple Care

Use a pot with a drain hole. Water deeply, then wait until the mix is dry. Avoid wet soil and cold, damp conditions.

Tiger Jaws works well in small succulent bowls. Pair it with Sempervivum ‘Jade Rose’ or add a blue accent with Blue Chalksticks.

Compact and Easy to Display

This plant stays small, so it fits sunny windows, shelves, and patio pots. Its unusual leaf shape gives mixed succulent displays a bold look.
