£8.99
- Also known as the Paddle Plant, it is an unusual-looking succulent that grows in a rosette of flat, round leaves. The gray-green leaves grow to about 15 cm across and will become tinged in red when exposed to sun. Mature plants may produce a spike of fragrant, yellow flowers in spring
- Sold in a 12cm nursery pot
- Light: Set your Paddle Plant in your sunniest window. It thrives in bright light to full sun year-round. Give the pot a quarter turn every week or so to expose all sides to sunlight. Although this succulent will tolerate low light for a while, its leaves may wilt
- Watering: Water thoroughly, then allow top 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Don't allow soil to get soggy or the roots may rot. Avoid getting the leaves wet to prevent rot; water the potting mix or water from the bottom
- Soil: This succulent doesnt like to be left sitting in water. We reccomend mixing a cactus and succulent compost with some pearlie for additional drainage
- Aditional care advice: Drooping leaves may be caused by lack of sunlight, over-watering or extreme under-watering. Take care not to water the crown of the plant because it will rot; water the potting mix around the plant
