Features:
Tiny & Textured: The leaves of 'Liliput' are thick and fleshy, covered in raised, bumpy tubercles that give them a unique, almost warty texture. These leaves are typically a deep green color, adding a touch of lushness to its miniature form.
Compact Rosettes: This Gasteria forms tight, stemless rosettes, typically reaching a height of only 2-3 inches, making it ideal for small spaces and container gardening.

Care Tips:
Light: Provide bright, indirect light or partial shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
