These 5 succulents are hard to get through summer, so treat them this way, and they won't die easily when the weather gets hot

As summer approaches, many succulent growers are getting more and more anxious. They finally got their succulents plump and healthy, and what they fear most is that this summer will not let them get through it well.

And these 5 succulents are relatively hard to get through summer, so hurry up and treat and protect them this way, otherwise once the weather gets hot they will be completely dead!

1. Echeveria derenbergii

Echeveria derenbergii is a mini Echeveria with a small size. It grows in clusters and is not easy to grow. Its vitality is relatively fragile, and it is sensitive to chemicals, so chemicals cannot be sprayed directly on the leaves. In summer, it enters a dormant period, and poor care can lead to leaf drop and withering

To care for Echeveria derenbergii in summer, remember one sentence: ventilate frequently and water little. You can place it in a bright spot on a south balcony or in the hall, keep the potting soil on the dry side, and do not water thoroughly. It is enough to keep it in normal condition.

2. Mountain Rose

Mountain Rose has a characteristic: in the growing season of winter and spring, the leaves are spread out, while in summer when it enters the dormant period, the leaves close up. So to let it get through summer better, shading and cutting off water are very important. When the temperature exceeds 25°C, it should be placed in a fairly bright and cool place, and water can be cut off directly.

3. Echeveria 'Little Red Robe'

Echeveria 'Little Red Robe' is famous for being hard to grow in summer. It needs enough light to grow compactly and have vivid leaf color, but it is not tolerant of scorching sun, especially in summer, when it is easily "baked." If the light is insufficient, it will also cause leggy growth, with loosely arranged leaves, affecting its ornamental value.

So when caring for Echeveria 'Little Red Robe' in summer, give it enough scattered light and an environment with good ventilation. The potting soil should be kept on the dry side, watering about once every half a month is enough, and when the temperature is too high, watering should be stopped.

4. Echeveria 'Frosty Morn'

Echeveria 'Frosty Morn' is not too difficult to get through summer. It needs enough light, and only needs shading at noon to avoid being scorched by strong sunlight.

Echeveria 'Frosty Morn' also cannot be watered too much in summer. Watering thoroughly about once every ten days is enough. However, one thing to note is that when watering, do not pour water onto the leaves. Moisture easily remains on the leaves or washes off the white powder, which can easily lead to rot.

5. Pachyveria 'Clavifolia'

Pachyveria 'Clavifolia' is relatively hard to grow because it blooms in summer. It needs enough light, but cannot be exposed to scorching sun. It is best to move it to a cool, bright, and ventilated place. It cannot be fertilized, otherwise before you even see the flowers, the whole plant will die. About every ten days, you can water it with a little 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution, which can promote flowering and extend the flowering period.

When watering Pachyveria 'Clavifolia' in summer, special attention is needed. Water should be slowly given from the flower pot, and it is only necessary to keep the roots from becoming too dry and withering.
