Pachyphytum Mango Beauty

About Pachyphytum Mango Beauty

Pachyphytum Mango Beauty is a rare chubby succulent belonging to the Crassulaceae family. Fatty spoon-shaped leaves dress up with a thin white powder coat. Blue-green leaves can turn into a light pink to orange when thriving. Pachyphytum Mango Beauty tends to stretch flatly without enough sun exposure. 

How to Care for Pachyphytum Mango Beauty

Sunlight: Pachyphytum Mango Beauty requires at least 8 hours of bright sunlight daily, year-round. This variety needs more sunlight than other Pachyphytum to achieve its chubby appearance. Locate it near the south-face window or add a grow light in low-light space. If you're keeping the succulent in an outdoor garden during summer, provide it with shade.

Water: Watering Pachyphytum Mango Beauty is crucial for its growth and survival. Avoid watering it from the top and opt for bottom watering or soak it in water when it's thirsty. Only water the plant when the planter's soil dries out or the bottom leaves feel slightly soft. Deduce water frequency in winter even if no water is provided as it goes dormant.

Soil & Planter: Apply cacti soil with 70%~80% organic material and 20%~30% perlite or gritty rocks to these succulents. Plant it in a planter pot with at least one drainage hole at the bottom.

Temperature: Pachyphytum Mango Beauty enjoys living in a warm and dry environment. Provide a sunshade in summer and move it indoors before the temperature drops to 40℉.

Propagation: It is highly recommended to propagate Pachyphytum Mango Beauty by leaf or by the cluster.

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.
