Origin
The Gasteria hybrid 'Aurora' 8/tray is a succulent species, belonging to the Aloe family. This hybrid originates from the crossbreeding of various Gasteria species, which are naturally found in South Africa. It is therefore a human-cultivated variety, specially developed for its ornamental value.

Characteristics
The Gasteria hybrid 'Aurora' 8/tray is a compact plant with a characteristic rosette growth pattern. Its leaves are thick, fleshy and have a dark green colour. White stripes can be seen along the edges of the leaves, a unique characteristic for this Gasteria variety. The plant can also produce small, bright red flowers, although this is less common in indoor plants.

Care
Caring for the Gasteria hybrid 'Aurora' 8/tray is quite simple due to the resilience of this plant. It prefers bright, indirect sunlight and struggles in extreme temperatures. As for watering, moderation is key. Succulents store water in their leaves and therefore require watering less frequently. Excessive watering may cause root rot, so it's advisable to allow the soil to fully dry out between waterings. It's also recommended to repot the plant every few years into a slightly larger pot to stimulate growth.
