Anacampseros arachnoides is a small succulent with green, reddish or dark brown, sharp thick leaves which end in a point. The rosettes spreads outwards forming a mat; the plant surfaces can be smooth or covered with fuzzy hairs. The wheel-shaped flowers can be white or pink, and they will only open in the afternoon for a few hours.
Water only occasionally; during summer water can be done more oftern, letting the soil get dry before watering again. Avoid excessive water. Water sparingly only once a month during fall and winter when the plant enters a dormant period.
Fertilize Anacampseros succulents every two to three weeks during spring and summer using a diluted solution of water-soluble fertilizer or a product formulated specifically for cactus and succulents.
Succulents and cacti thrive in well draining, porous soils. Use ceramic pots that are porous which means your plants are less likely to experience root rot from overwatering.
