Prior to it I tried Crassula Ovata, but it just couldn't manage the light and temperatures unfortunately and started to drop leaves. Most other Succulents seem to not like the conditions in 1 way or another either, mostly related to the inhabitants and/or they stay low and add little to the terra as such...
I am actual having issues getting a elephant plant to grow in my office right now. I seem to have no luck with succulents. I also was looking to set up a desert bioactive enclosure for my milk/king mix, but have given up on that for now.
