Succulents of the "beauty" type are not hard to grow; master the tricks and they can fill a pot

Succulents of the "beauty" type have always held a place of honor in the succulent family, winning the public's affection all on their own. One of our editor's good friends has a mother who is especially fond of the "beauty" type; every trip to the flower and bird market is only to search for traces of "beauty" type succulents, but each time she buys one and takes it home, it turns yellow and rots before long, let alone filling a pot.

From what I understand, the reason the auntie's plants kept drowning before long was that she watered too much and did not learn from her care experience. Speaking of this, our editor wants to remind the many flower lovers out there: do not water too much just because you love it too much and fear it will be thirsty. You should care for plants according to their growth habits.

Succulents of the "beauty" type are actually not hard to grow. Today our editor wants to share three little lessons from growing them personally; pay attention to these and your succulents can grow healthily and thrive.

First, use soil made of peat plus granules. Do not assume that because "beauties" mostly grow on cliff faces, they can grow in soil of low quality with no demands; in fact, the "beauty" type craves nutrients even more than types like lithops.

Second, the "beauty" type's native habitat is cool and dry in all four seasons. Having grown used to cool and dry conditions, the "beauty" type does not appreciate the hot and humid summer, so when watering you should maintain a dry---wet---dry---wet cycle; only this way can the "beauty" type's roots effectively absorb oxygen and grow healthily.

Third, prevent pests and diseases. Although the "beauty" type is tougher than most Crassulaceae succulents, it is not immune to every poison; it is especially prone to attack by aphids, bees, root mealybugs and other small creatures, so be sure to fertilize and apply pesticide at the right times, so it can multiply quickly.

As a little owner who loves succulents, you must care more about and pay more attention to the growth of your "beauty" type, but be careful never to water it more just because you love it!!! Finally, we hope the "beauty" type you plant can also grow and multiply quickly and fill the pot.
