How to care
A succulent for a bright window. Let the mix dry between waterings and keep it out of prolonged rain.
Choose a suitable variety from a reliable nursery. Start with clean containers and fresh seed or a healthy young plant.
Check the soil before watering; water the root zone when needed and let excess drain. Do not use a fixed daily schedule.
Inspect both sides of leaves regularly. Remove badly damaged material and identify the problem before treating it. Use fertilisers only according to their label and the plant’s needs.
Soil & drainage
Use a fast-draining succulent mix. Do not keep the pot standing in water.
