Description:

Succulent formed by pale green opaque stems that branch rapidly, tending to grow curved and sometimes creeping to the ground, where they root with great ease. Each stem is equipped with four strongly angular ribs, enriched by soft and protruding teeth , spaced regularly. Depending on the sun exposure, the plant tends to get really peculiar red-brownish streaks. They match perfectly with the real strong point of C. vaga: its flowers are very large, in the shape of a star with 5 strongly elongated points, from the fleshy petals of a beautiful bright red pleasantly mottled of yellow or brown hues!

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sunlight especially during the hottest hours of the day.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 8 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water the plant once a week in spring and summer, once every two months in autumn and winter.

A well draining soil is an optimal solution, for example formed by a mix of peat and pumice so that water does not stagnate.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
