SUCCULENT CARE TIPS
Taking proper care of your succulents ensures they thrive and grow beautifully. Follow these tips for a healthy start:
Unpacking Your Succulents
•    Unpack your succulents as soon as they arrive, handling them with care.
•    Trim dead roots: Remove any dried or damaged roots.
•    Remove dead leaves: Discard leaves that are transparent, shriveled, or dead. Loose or wrinkled leaves are normal and may be used for propagation if still healthy.
Preparing Your Succulents for Planting
•    Rest and acclimate: Place the succulents in a cool, ventilated area for 1-2 days before planting to allow them to adjust.
•    Soil selection: Use fast-draining soil. Our recommended mix is:
o    3 parts cactus and succulent soil
o    1 part perlite
o    1 part pumice
Adjust the soil mix based on your local climate and growing conditions.
•    Potting: Always use pots with drainage holes to promote healthy root growth and prevent waterlogging.
•    Optional top layer: Add a layer of Akadama soil on top to encourage root development.
•    Place the succulent on top of the soil, without deeply burying the stem.
Light and Watering Tips
•    Light conditions:
o    Keep succulents in a dry, well-lit area with no direct sunlight until they are fully rooted.
o    Once rooted, gradually move them to partial sunlight, then to full sun exposure.
•    Watering:
o    Water every 7–14 days, depending on pot size, pot material, weather and season.
o    Let the soil dry completely from top to bottom before rewatering. A common mistake is watering again when only the topsoil appears dry, leading to potential root rot
Normal Adaptation Signs
•    During the first few weeks:
o    Succulents may appear wrinkled, soft, or lose a few leaves. This is normal as they use stored water to survive while growing new roots.
o    Old bottom leaves may dry up during this process—this is part of their natural growth cycle.
•    Once rooted:
o    Succulents will absorb water and regain their plump, vibrant appearance. They may also grow new leaves or pups (baby plants) if mature.
o    If flowering while rooting, we recommend trimming the flowers to redirect energy toward root development.
Growth Expectations
•    Unique growth: Every succulent is unique and grows differently based on its environment, including lighting, weather, and care.
•    Patience is key: It may take a few weeks for succulents to root and several months to fully establish themselves.
•    Observation is crucial: Regularly monitor your plants’ condition to better understand their needs and adjust your care techniques accordingly.
Sustaining Vibrant Color and Health
To maintain your succulents’ stunning colors and healthy growth:
•    Provide sufficient sunlight.
•    Water appropriately.
•    Ensure a balanced temperature suitable for their species.
