Tiger Jaws

$10.00

Unleash the Roar of the Succulent World!

Meet the captivating Faucaria tigrina, aptly nicknamed the Tiger Jaws succulent. This is one of the most distinctive and eye-catching plants you can add to your collection, combining an almost fearsome look with effortless, low-maintenance care.

Key Features:

  • Fiercely Unique Foliage: The plant forms tight, clump-forming rosettes of thick, triangular, grey-green leaves. Its most striking feature is the soft, white, tooth-like serrations lining the leaf margins, giving the plant the unmistakable appearance of an open jaw. Don't worry—despite their spiky look, the "teeth" are flexible and completely harmless to the touch!

  • Showy Seasonal Blooms: As a spectacular bonus, a mature, happy Faucaria tigrina will reward you with large, daisy-like bright yellow flowers in the late fall and early winter. These magnificent blooms emerge from the center of the rosette, opening in the afternoon sun and closing as evening approaches.

  • Easy Care: Like its drought-tolerant relatives, Tiger Jaws thrives on neglect. It's a slow-growing, resilient succulent perfect for sunny windowsills, rock gardens, or decorative pots.

All potted plants are local pickup only. Shipped plants will be bare root (no pot or soil).

Care Essentials:

  • Light: Needs plenty of bright light to full sun. A south-facing window is ideal indoors.

  • Watering: Use a porous, well-draining soil mix (like a cactus/succulent blend). Water thoroughly only when the soil is completely dry to prevent rot. Reduce watering significantly during the winter semi-dormant period.

  • Size: Forms a compact clump, typically reaching 4 to 6 inches in height and spread.

Bring home the Tiger Jaws and introduce a touch of the wild South African veld to your space! It's a guaranteed conversation starter and a favorite among succulent collectors.
