Caudex plants are characterized by their thick, swollen stems or rootsticks ('the caudex') that store water and nutrients, allowing them to survive in arid environments and create unique, sculptural forms. They are not a single plant family but rather a diverse group found globally, prized for their slow growth, unusual textures, and dramatic, bonsai-like appearance.
Light: Most caudiciforms prefer bright light; a sunny window is ideal for indoor growing.
Watering: Water sparingly, only when the plants are actively growing and have leaves forming. Reduce watering significantly during seasonal dormancy.
Soil: Use a well-draining soil mix to prevent waterlogging and root rot.
