The colors are gorgeous. I know very little about this type of plant. I usually start with a smaller plant until I get used to its growing habit. But, the local seller priced it at $25 to sell fast and no shipping costs. So, I couldn’t pass it up!😁
1 mi piaceIt’s a succulent so just treat it like one and you’re good and also place it somewhere it gets some direct sunlight, but not way too much.
1 mi piaceThank you for the info. I’m terrible with succulents. I’ve put it outside to get late afternoon sunlight without burning.
0 Mi piaceThat’s a good idea, exposing it to intense direct sunlight for long periods of time can hurt the bush.
1 mi piaceI have two, one more lighter, variegated…that one is now hanging over the sides. My bigger one, I call my Tree as it has a trunk type middle. Once I had it in a plastic pot and it grew thru the drain hole into the ground! Since then, it has been kept in a pot on the table!!
1 mi piaceBoth are beautiful! 😍 I just watered mine for the first time after having it two weeks. it still looks great. No dropped leaves which surprised me since it’s in a new home.
