Care Tips

Upon arrival, gently unpack your starter plant. Allow it to acclimate for a day or two before repotting if desired.

For Outdoor Planting: Best suited for frost-free climates (USDA Zones 9-11). Choose a location with bright, indirect light or morning sun. Avoid harsh afternoon sun, which can scorch the delicate leaves. Ensure excellent drainage in sandy or gritty soil. Water thoroughly only when the soil is completely dry, then allow it to dry out fully before watering again. Reduce watering significantly in winter.

For Indoor Growing: Place in a very bright location with plenty of indirect light, such as near a south or west-facing window. Protect from direct, intense midday sun which can bleach or burn the variegated portions. Use a pot with drainage holes and a well-draining succulent potting mix. Water sparingly; allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out completely before rewatering. Overwatering is the most common cause of decline. Ensure good air circulation. Fertilize very lightly during the active growing season (spring/summer).
