For beginners growing succulents, these five easy-care varieties are the top choice
The hot summer days have quietly arrived, and it is once again a good season for growing succulents. If you are still a beginner, do you know which succulents are suitable for getting started? Come and take a look!
Huangli (Sedum adolphi) -- Crassulaceae, native to Mexico. The leaves of Huangli are ovate, and the thick, fleshy leaves grow in whorls, arranged in small rosettes. It loves sunlight; under sufficient light, the leaves turn golden yellow, and the edges become a beautiful red.
Huangli has a beautiful jelly-like appearance and tenacious vitality, making it very suitable for beginners to get started with.
Jichuwa (Echeveria 'Chihuahua') -- a succulent plant of the genus Echeveria in the Crassulaceae family, native to Mexico. Jichuwa has a small plant shape, with ovate leaves that are slightly closed inward, and a small, long red tip at the top. It loves sunlight, and due to its cute and charming appearance, succulent lovers affectionately call it "Yang Guifei."
Jichuwa is both beautiful in appearance and cute and charming, and is very worth growing for beginners.
Dahejin (Echeveria purpusorum) -- a succulent plant of the genus Echeveria in the Crassulaceae family. The leaves of Dahejin form a tight rosette, and the leaf color is grayish green, densely covered with reddish-brown markings. It loves sunlight; the more light there is, the more charming the reddish-brown markings become.
Its plump, gradient appearance, combined with its tough "constitution" that resists dryness and tolerates drought, absolutely makes it a must-choose succulent for beginners.
Fozhu (Senecio rowleyanus) -- a succulent plant of the genus Senecio in the Asteraceae family, native to South Africa. The leaves of Fozhu are spherical to spindle-shaped, with a transparent longitudinal stripe in the center of the leaf and a slightly pointed protrusion at the tip. It tolerates partial shade and avoids stuffy, hot, and humid conditions.
Fozhu is also known as "lover's tears"; its poetic name and perfect appearance make it worth beginners getting a pot.
Yinüxin (Sedum pachyphyllum) -- a succulent plant of the genus Sedum in the Crassulaceae family, native to Mexico. The tips of Yinüxin leaves are red and cylindrical, with new leaves being lighter in color and old leaves darker. It loves sunlight, tolerates drought, and prefers fertilizer relatively more.
The appearance of Yinüxin is as exquisite and lovely as a pitter-pattering young girl's heart, resembling a mini banana, and is worth beginners eagerly trying.
The fresh and charming Huangli, the cute and adorable Jichuwa, the sturdy and substantial Dahejin, the poetic and romantic lover's tears, and the exquisite and translucent Yinüxin -- each one is a unique cute succulent. Beginner growers, why not hurry and have a close encounter with them? Come on!
