About Adromischus triflorus 'Calico Hearts'

Adromischus triflorus is a dwarf succulent with grey-green leaves and edged in purple-red spots, which tend to appear out more in direct sunlight. It is famous for its plump leaves heart-shaped.

How to care for Adromischus triflorus 'Calico Hearts'

Sun/Location: 'Calico Hearts' is a type of soft succulent that is more sensitive to frost than hardy succulents. They can't survive outdoors in cold winter. Bring them indoors and place them by the window to get as much sunlight as possible or under a grow light. Although succulents enjoy light, intense sunshine can burn their leaves. In the morning, give them sunlight, and in the afternoon, provide appropriate shade.

Soil/Pot: To ensure the health of succulents, they need a porous, well-draining cactus soil mix to live in. Replanting the succulent into a pot with drainage holes; for the size of the planter pot, we recommend choosing a pot 1-2 inches larger than the size of the plant, and the succulents will grow happily as you expect.

Watering: Succulents require little watering but don't like to sit in wet soil. The best way of watering is the soak-and-dry method. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry. Shop for Rare and Unusual succulents here.

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.
