Looking for a low-maintenance succulent that can add some charm to your indoor or outdoor space? Look no further than the ox tongue plant, also known as Gasteria carinata var. verrucosa!  

The Gasteria carinata 'verrucosa' is commonly referred to as ox tongue due to the shape and texture of its leaves. The leaves of this plant are thick, fleshy, and elongated, resembling the tongue of an ox. Additionally, the rough and warty surface of the leaves further contributes to its resemblance to an ox's tongue, which gives its names warty aloe, wart Gasteria, Keeled oxtongue, and Bredasdorp Gasteria.    

Hailing all the way from South Africa, it has thick, fleshy leaves that grow in a rosette with raised warts or bumps. With its dull green leaves adorned with white spots, it knows how to make a statement. These leaves can grow up to 12 inches long and 12 inches wide at the base, giving them a bold presence.  

With their lovely orange-pink flowers that bloom in early spring, they are like a burst of fireworks and easy-to-care-for. These Gasteria flowers appear in simple racemes but might surprise you by adding some small branches here and there for an unexpected twist. This slow-growing succulent plant is sure to be a hit with both experienced gardeners and beginners alike. 

These ox tongue plants are non-toxic for both humans and pets and can be propagated easily by offsets or stem cuttings. So, whether you're an avid green thumb or just looking for a new addition to your collection, read on to learn more about the ox tongue plant! 

Watering Needs 

Often, people worry they aren't giving their ox tongue plants enough water when in reality they are over-watering them. This is especially the case with succulents Gasteria as they don't do well in moist soil which can result in root rot.  

It's best to wait until the top two inches of soil are completely dry before watering. Watch out for signs of dehydration such as a pale discoloration and shriveled stem indicating that the succulent is consuming its interior water supply. Besides hydrating correctly, it's also crucial to ensure that the potting soil drains quickly to avoid damaging cactus roots.

As drought-tolerant plants, the ox tongue can thrive with less frequent watering, and if you forget to water them for a month or more, they will probably survive just fine.  

Light Requirement 

The ox tongue Gasteria plant is a really versatile plant when it comes to light requirements. It can thrive in a variety of different light levels, from full sun to partial shade. However, it's important to be mindful of the intensity of the light - if it is exposed to direct sunlight for too long, it can actually burn the leaves. So, if you're planning on keeping your ox tongue in a sunny spot, make sure that it's getting some shade during the hottest parts of the day. 

If you're not sure what kind of lighting conditions your ox tongue plant needs, you can always observe the leaves. If the leaves are starting to turn brown or yellow, it might be a sign that your Gasteria ox tongue is getting too much sunlight. On the other hand, if the leaves are starting to stretch out or become pale, it might be a sign that it isn't getting enough light.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

 The ox tongue plant prefers well-draining soil that allows water to flow through easily. If the soil is too dense or compact, it can hold onto water for too long and cause root rot. To help ensure that your ox tongue plants are getting the right amount of water, you might want to consider using a succulent soil mix, which is specifically designed for plants like the ox tongue.

Ideally, you want to use our specialized succulent potting mix, opens in a new tab that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your succulent to thrive. 

When it comes to fertilizer for your ox tongue plant, use a balanced natural fertilizer with an equal ratio of NPK (5-10-5) that's formulated for succulents. You can apply the fertilizer once a year during the growing season in the spring and then stop fertilizing altogether during the winter months.

Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, as over-fertilizing can be just as harmful to the plant as under-fertilizing. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

As desert dwellers, the Gasteria plants enjoy hot temperatures. They prefer constant temperatures above 70 degrees Fahrenheit and can tolerate triple digits in the summer, so don't worry if your succulents get too hot.  

These ox tongue plants, on the other hand, cannot handle frost, cold, or freezing temperatures, so make sure it doesn't get below 45 

degrees Fahrenheit in its environment.  If grown outdoors this Gasteria Verrucosa’ grows best in USDA zone 9-11. 

Give this succulent Gasteria carinata 'verrucosa' a try if you're looking for an easy plant to care for!

Secure, clean hose, poor durability.
Style: 20' Rhino Sewer Hose
The connectors, and plugs work great. I operate an Arctic Fox 990 TC. Plugging the ends keeps any residual in the hose and prevents odors and they ends are very easy to operate. I operate an RV in a climate controlled environment, dumping grey water roughly once every day or two for odor control, with occasional trips dumping more like 5-7 day intervals. I only use one of the two hoses and after about 175 cycles the hose split apart near the end. I shortened it at the break and reattached but within another 10 uses the hose split in the middle. Extending and contracting the hose is hard on it and weakens the folds in the plastic the point of failure within certainly less than 200 uses at 50+F temperatures, so don't expect great longevity out of the hose. I image if you dump in cold temperature, subject it to a lot of movement by leaving it hooked up outside the hose could survive even fewer extensions. If you only dump a few times a year it may last you twenty years or more. The good news is that if you pay attention you'll likely notice the hose split before you run the sewage through it, so if you carry a spare you'll at least be able to dump. I ordered another pair so I can always have at least one spare on hand and I figure my failure rate will be about once every 9 months or so. Camco makes other hoses, including an Extreme that likely doesn't pack tightly enough for two 10' sections in my bumper. I don't need crush resistance, I need durability, so the more expensive hose really wouldn't be an improvement for me since I wouldn't be able to carry a backup. I'm guessing all of these hoses will have a similar durability limitation, especially if extended when cold. I'd like to see a slightly softer, more durable material that will still hold it's shape when dumping, but maybe that's not possible with current plastic characteristics. Main take away is make sure you've got a spare sewer hose section on hand if you have a way to store it.

Durable, Reliable RV Sewer Hose
Style: 20' Rhino Sewer Hose
The Camco RhinoFLEX sewer hose appears to be extremely durable and tough — exactly what you want when it comes to RV sewer equipment. This is one product where you absolutely don’t want leaks, and this hose feels solid and dependable. I really like that it comes in two 10‑foot sections. You only have to use the length you actually need to reach the dump station, which keeps things cleaner and easier to manage. The fittings lock on securely, and the hose holds its shape well during use. Overall, a strong, well‑designed sewer hose that gives you confidence every time you dump your tanks.

Easy Install; clear elbow a plus!
Style: 20' Rhino Sewer Hose, Style: 20' Rhino Sewer Hose
This set up was very easy to connect. Strong hooks at the end that attaches to the tank and lock in place. To lock it, I had to use brute force! Omg. :-) I’m very happy with the clear elbow. I had always shut the tank before it was clear, I am sure. One concern, I saw leakage between the clear elbow and the adapter that connects with the sewer line. 30 seconds later the leak healed it seal, so to speak
