As cultivated specimens, they fare best as greenhouse plants or rock garden specimens in frost-free climates.
Gasteria form variable rosettes of fleshy, spineless leaves that...

(Cow's Tongue Cactus, Gasteria, Kus Beestong)
Large rosettes with pointed, spotted leaves make this Gasteria species look like a coarse, multi-armed starfish. Gasteria acinacifolia is the largest species and is native to the dunes across the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. A single plant becomes a cluster of multiple rosettes over time. If any portion of a leaf is trampled or broken off, it will readily root in the soil to become a new plant.
The rosette's firm, succulent leaves are strap- or spear-shaped, often...
