Editor's note:

If you still have a childlike heart, do you own these nine cutest succulents below?

- Bear's Paw -

Crassulaceae, Cotyledon genus, the adorable Bear's Paw, has held the title of cutest plant champion year after year, no matter what it always looks cute!

There are also the yellow bear and white bear, both equally adorable, and when sun-stressed the claws look like they secretly painted on red nail polish~

- Care -

Dislikes water, likes light, needs shade in summer, not cold-hardy, move indoors when temperature drops below minus five degrees, leaf propagation is very difficult, basically requires stem cuttings

Note: In summer Bear's Paw does not tolerate heat and may drop leaves; even if it drops them all, as long as it stays alive it will grow back in autumn. So do not give up if your bear drops leaves~

- Panda Plant -

Crassulaceae, Kalanchoe genus, the leaves are fuzzy and feel amazing to touch, you will want to keep touching them and never stop; with proper care, the dark brown spots along the leaf edges will increase more and more, as tempting as if dipped in chocolate, and the shape resembles a little rabbit's upright ears. There is also the Daruma Panda Plant and the Fortune Panda Plant, also very cute little bunnies, little white rabbit, white and bright, two ears standing upright~

Daruma Panda Plant

- Care -

Dislikes water, likes light, needs shade in summer, extremely easy to grow, only tends to grow leggy when light is insufficient

Leaf propagation: Panda Plant is a rare succulent species that can be leaf-propagated even without a growth point; even if you accidentally break off a leaf, once the wound heals it will still grow little panda plant ears, with reproductive power as strong as a rabbit.

- Baby Fingers -

Crassulaceae, Pachyphytum genus, pink and tender, like a baby's chubby fingers. Of course, Baby Fingers now also starts to slowly fade in color, but it also colors up very quickly, no wonder so many people like it.

- Care -

Dislikes water, likes light, needs shade in summer, tends to produce offsets easily, leaf propagation is relatively slow

- White-skinned Seal -

Adromischus genus, full name White-skinned Seal Water Bubble, looks super like a seal

(If it did not look like one, could it be called this name?)

Especially white (image from the internet)

- Lithops -

Aizoaceae, Lithops genus, super many varieties, also called butt, PP, a pet name for Lithops, because it looks like a butt, also a round plump type, with many varieties: Chrysanthemum Pattern, Arago, Nanman Jade; beginners are advised to start with the South African mix and give it a try

- Care -

It is said that peat soil is not recommended for growing butts, generally grass peat soil is used more,

Do not cut off water in summer!!! Do not water during the molting period!!!!

Care is actually quite easy, hehehe

Planted together in mixed colors looks super beautiful (image from the internet)

- Monilaria -

Speaking of cute things, how could Monilaria be left out? It looks like a rabbit, with semi-transparent leaves full of a granular texture, very cute in photos.

- Care -

Aizoaceae, Monilaria genus, native to South Africa, likes shade, drought-tolerant, dislikes water, needs shade in summer, goes dormant in high temperatures, do not cut off water during dormancy.

This is how it looks when grown up~ (image from the internet), a bit disappointing

- White-haired Prickly Pear -

La la la, the Mickey Mouse among cacti~ Without further ado, look at the pictures!

It grew an extra ear

- Care -

Super easy, dislikes water, cacti are all pretty tough

- Dolphin String of Bananas -

Senecio peregrinus, Asteraceae, Senecio genus succulent. Its most special feature is that its leaves look remarkably like little dolphins leaping out of the water, so it is also called Dolphin String of Bananas

- Care -

It belongs to the same genus as String of Pearls, so it also likes water and is semi-sun-loving; to prevent leggy growth it cannot be kept in full shade

The leaves look just like dolphins (image from the internet)

- Dewdrop -

Urticaceae, Pilea genus, a succulent that started becoming hugely popular this year; the upper surface of the ellipsoid leaves is a green spherical surface, while the lower surface is a hemispherical translucent window, like drops of crystal-clear dew. With enough sunlight, the stems and leaf surfaces turn a beautiful red-purple, with a glossy, lustrous sheen.

Red and super pretty (image from the internet)

- Care -

Its rarity is also because it is difficult to care for; it likes light and moisture, does not tolerate high-temperature humid heat, and grows best in moisture-rich humus soil

That is all for today's cute plants; if you like them, please take a moment to share

Happy Children's Day to everyone~
