Gasteria ‘Big Brother’ – Bold Form, Striking Presence

Make a statement in your succulent collection with Gasteria ‘Big Brother’, a cultivar known for its commanding size and sculptural beauty. Living up to its name, this impressive variety features thick, oversized leaves that can reach up to 12 inches in length—making it a true standout in any display.

Whether placed in a minimalist container or a curated succulent arrangement, 'Big Brother' brings an architectural elegance that’s hard to ignore.

What Sets It Apart

• Massive, Architectural Leaves – Broad, fleshy leaves form a dramatic rosette, bringing bold structure and vertical interest to your space.

• Textured Tubercles – The deep green leaves are dotted with raised, tactile bumps (tubercles), giving the plant an intriguing texture that invites a closer look.

• Color Shifts in Light – When exposed to bright, indirect sunlight, the foliage may blush with subtle reddish tones, adding depth and dimension.

• Sculptural Rosettes – Open, symmetrical growth creates a dynamic silhouette perfect for modern interiors or outdoor succulent gardens.

Care is a Breeze

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some morning sun. Avoid harsh afternoon rays to prevent leaf scorching.

• Water: Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry. Like most succulents, it prefers the "soak and dry" method.

• Soil: Requires well-draining soil. Use a cactus or succulent mix to prevent excess moisture.

• Temperature: Best kept in warm environments. Protect from frost and prolonged cold.

• Maintenance: Minimal. Ideal for both beginners and collectors who want bold impact with little effort.

Why You’ll Love ‘Big Brother’

• Showstopper Size: Oversized leaves offer a dramatic focal point that commands attention.

• Unique Texture: Its bumpy, tubercled surface adds a fascinating, almost prehistoric look.

• Effortlessly Striking: With low care needs and bold form, it’s the perfect blend of resilience and style.
