Taking care of your plants

Callisia Rosato Pink Lady
Exposure

Locate me in indirect light, which means I have access to light from windows without sun directly hitting my leaves. Happiest in rooms with temperatures 15-25º.

Watering frequency

Feed me once a month during the growing season of spring and summer with a succulent-cacti plant feed.

Feeding frequency

Succulents tend to be slow growing so rarely need re-potting, but will benefit from an occassional change of compost. Use cacti and succulent compost. If increasing the pot size, choose one only one or two inches wider than current.

Repoting

Water me when the top two inches of my compost are dry, do not overwater. Watering from the bottom (sitting in a sink or watering inside the decorative pot, leaving to sit for an hour then tipping out the excess water) helps avoid overwatering.
