Quick Facts:
- What to use me for: I’m one of the larger houseplants with structure and style - big paddle boards for leaves which is why everyone adores me. I can live in the garden too either in a pot on the patio or in a sheltered border, but remember I grow big. Turn me every so often to ensure even growth.
- I grow to: up to 3m if indoors
- Where to place me: Bright indirect light is best - and I hate the cold please don't let me get a chill.
- Soil Conditions: Well-drained soil, please.

Garden Coach: Week 1
Keeping your plants alive the first 30 days is critical. Don't worry, I’ll guide you through
Let me kick off with watering.
Succulents don’t like a lot of water and long periods of drought won’t hurt yours one bit, they’re the best type of plant for forgetful folk, or those that are away from home a fair bit, so don’t feel bad if you haven’t given him a drink yet. One of the most common mistakes people make is watering them too much! The best potting mix for succulents is a well draining one. Using a good potting mix of porous soil for succulents is super important to prevent overwatering. Water your succulent when the soil is dry. Soak it thoroughly rather than giving it regular sips and always empty excess water from the saucer as it will rot the roots. If you’re struggling try one of our self-watering pots they make a plant killer look like a pro! In winter succulents need even less water. You can touch the soil each week and if it’s even a bit damp then leave it alone and try again the following week. Succulents need little moisture and although it seems cruel, a sure-fire way to kill your beauty is by watering it frequently. This will turn it to mush.
If in doubt, leave it without.
Don't leaf just yet!
