WHY YOU SHOULD GROW SUCCULENTS Houseplants are favorite additions to many homes because it is an easy way to bring nature to the room and brighten up a person’s mood. But some houseplants like succulents are more favorable than the others. And here are 4 reasons why you should have succulents in your house. HASSLE-FREE PLANT Succulents are among the most resilient and low-maintenance plants. They tolerate limited watering better than most houseplants. Many succulents like Cactus or Lithops thrive on neglect so they are the perfect choices for people without a green thumb. THE PERFECT GIFT FOR YOUR LOVED ONE Thanks to their tenacity and unique features, succulents quickly gain popularity as the most trendy houseplants. In many cultures, succulents are believed to represent incredible meanings like love, strength and good fortune. They are super easy to take care of and hold a mesmerizing beauty, which makes them an excellent gift choice, especially to your greenthumbed loved ones. GREAT HOME DECOR Come in great varieties and colors, succulents do not only add shades of green to your house but they also make great decorations. You can put them in colorful containers, turn them into beautiful centerpieces or use them as material for different DIY projects. A cute succulent pot will brighten up your living space and add an exquisite accent to your garden. IMPROVE AIR CIRCULATION Like normal plants, succulents absorb CO2 then converting it into O2 during the day time. They help you breathe better by filtering out the toxic chemical, purifying the air, and producing more oxygen. Researches also show that succulents aid in quicker recovery by reducing flu-like symptoms, headaches, fever and coughs. Having plants at home or in workplace will improve air quality and make breathing easier. Succulent Care Guide Watering Succulents generally need less water than other plants. You should only water your succulents when the soil is completely dry. Tip to check the soil moisture: Insert a chopstick in the soil for 3 minutes. If the chopstick has water mark, the soil is still wet and you should not water it yet.Succulent watering routine heavily depends on the climate (humid or dry). For beginner, we recommend watering your succulent once every 10-14 days.Don't use spray bottle to water your succulent. ONLY water the soil, not the succulents' leaves. Their leaves are bulbous and contain lots of water so they are prone to rot.Every time you water, give your succulents a good soak till water dripping out of the drainage hole. It is better to underwater than overwater them so when in doubt, don't water your succulents. Light Most succulents require at least 4-6 hours of morning sunlight to grow. Some succulents prefer bright but filtered light like Haworthia, others like Echeveria or Cactus love direct sun. Colorful succulents often tolerate direct sun better than green succulents.Succulents that are not used to direct sunlight, such as newly planted succulents or indoor succulents need to be slowly introduced to direct sunlight to avoid temperature shock.Underexposure: Lack of sunlight often results in etiolation and leaves growing downwards. Colorful succulents will lose their vivid color and turn green.Overexposure: Succulents might get sunburned given too much sunlight so it is not recommended to expose your succulents to direct sun when temperature is above 90F. Soil Succulents prefer gritty and well-drained soil. Porous soil is crucial in improving drainage and preventing root rotting in succulents.You can either use cactus mix or prepare the potting medium by mixing organic (eg. dark soil, compost, bark fines) and inorganic components (eg. perlite, granite or pumice) at a 50:50 ratio. Temperature Succulents prefer climate with the temperatures ranging from 60 to 80°F. Some can tolerate temperatures as low as 40°F or as high as 90°F. Extreme temperatures can “stress” succulents into changing color. Most succulents are drought-tolerant. Many varieties can go many days without water. However, high summer heat and direct sun can still damage your succulents by causing brown patches or sunburn on the leaves. Put your succulents in shade when the pot temperature is higher than usual and the leaves turn yellowish.Not all succulents are cold-hardy. Only Sempervivums and some Sedums can withstand frosty weather so make sure to protect your succulents or bring them inside when temperature fall below 40F. FAQ Q. What are some of the common struggles with succulents? Succulents are particularly susceptible to root rot and overwatering, especially if you don’t have them in well-draining soil and a pot with good drainage. Aphids and Mealybugs love this plant in particular because of its sweet sap. Be sure to check under the leaves regularly for pests. Browning leaves from lack of sunlight and underwatering are common if the plant isn’t well-adjusted to its environment. Q. How do you pack the plants? Your plant will be shipped bare-root in a sturdy box to ensure its safety. If you want to receive the plastic pot & soil, please leave a note in your order. When opening your package, some soil may be loose in the box. If you live or have an order being shipped to a location with temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, we strongly recommend purchasing a winter heat pack to ensure your plant(s) arrive safely and without damage caused by winter temperatures. Q. What should I do after receiving my box? If your succulents arrive potted with dry soil, you can leave the plants in the nursery pot and wait 2-3 days before watering them. When watering, please give them a good soak. If your succulents arrive potted with wet soil, the first thing you need to do is to check their leaves and roots' condition. If the succulents look overwatered (yellow, transparent, and soggy leaves), remove the soil from the succulents' root, and let them air dry for 1-2 days before re-potting it in a suitable pot. If the succulents look healthy, you can leave them in the nursery pots and water only when the soil is completely dry. Q. What to do if there is an issue with my order? We will gladly offer a replacement if your plants arrive broken/ dead. We'll always try our best to accommodate you :)
