bottom watering is a great idea because their leaves do not like to get wet! but to be honest, i still do top water until it starts to run out the bottom. then i blot dry the leaves with a cloth. the most important thing i'd say is to let your plant dry out almost completely between waterings. this girl is very prone to root rot!

Yours is gorgeous. They grow so fast!

Mine gets a haircut about once a week. As for care, I’m not so careful. I top water until it drains. I use succulent/cactus soil and always a shallow pot. I water when almost totally dry. Their root system is extremely shallow. If you use a deeper pot, the bottom will stay wet all the time because no roots there to take up the moisture, which leads to root rot. I did have a much larger one but it ended up looking bad because I let it dry out too much I think. The center leaves dried up. Took cuttings from the ends, laid them on soil, slightly covered with more soil, and grew a new planter of them.
