The rare succulent Gasteria bicolor var. liliputana—also known as Ox Tongue or Lawyer’s Tongue—is a compact, slow-growing plant that adds a designer touch to any collection. Its deep green, slightly rough leaves are banded with pale streaks and dotted textures that resemble the patterns you might see in a piece of luxury woven fabric. This exotic plant stays small, making it ideal for desks, windowsills, or curated displays, while its unusual leaf arrangement forms a rosette that looks architectural and modern.
Native to South Africa, this rare succulent thrives with minimal care. It prefers bright, indirect light, infrequent watering, and fast-draining soil. At Plant Vault, we recommend allowing the soil to dry completely before watering and providing trace amounts of fertilizer at every watering to encourage growth. Easy to care for and visually striking, the Gasteria bicolor var. liliputana is a collector’s choice for those who appreciate both rarity and refined style.
The Gasteria comes in a 4" grow pot.
