About Corpuscularia Lehmanni(lce Plant) Cuttings

How to care for Corpuscularia Lehmanni(lce Plant) Cuttings

Sun/Temperature: Place the cuttings in a location that receives bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid exposing them to intense, direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day.Corpuscularia lehmannii prefers warm temperatures. Keep the cuttings in an environment where temperatures range between 65℉ to 80℉ during the day and no lower than 50°F at night.

Soil/Watering: Plant the cuttings in well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix. A mixture of sand, perlite, and peat moss works well. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings.

Pests and Diseases: Keep an eye out for common succulent pests such as mealybugs and aphids. Treat any infestations promptly using insecticidal soap or neem oil. Ensure good air circulation around the cuttings to prevent fungal diseases. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.

Pot/Paver: Ice plants are usually green, so choosing a light-colored planter will accentuate the green color of their plant and provide a fresh, bright look. White, light gray or light blue planters are all good choices. Ice plants prefer to grow in well-drained soil, so choosing some fine-grained stone or gravel for pavers can help keep the soil drained. In addition, the color of top dressing can match the color of the planter to keep the overall coordination and beauty.

Fertilizer: Feed the Corpuscularia Lehmanni with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half-strength during the growing season (spring and summer). Apply fertilizer sparingly, as Corpuscularia Lehmanni have low nutrient requirements. Avoid fertilizing during the dormant period.

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.

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.
