I took 2 a few years ago, put one in a box with rich soil, the other in a shallow bonsai pot on bonsai soil. The one in the box is dead, the one in the bonsai pot is still alive, but has been somewhat difficult. I don't think they like too much water, IMO... I feel like I'm pushing the limits of dryness with the existing one, it tends to tell me when it wants more, and it's less that once per week at this point... FWIW
