Their main habitats are in Central and South America, where the air is hot and humid. Almost all of them have thick, fleshy leaves that store water, so they can go without water for long periods of time. Making them the ideal plant for those who are a little too busy to water on a regular basis.
This plant can be displayed in a variety of attractive ways, looking great on a high shelf or as a hanging plant in a medium to bright filtered light position. The stems of this plant grow rapidly and in all directions. You can trim it whenever you like if you want it compact and bushy.
