How to care for Graptopetalum paraguayense cv.bronze

Soil/Pot: To ensure the health of succulent plants, they need porous, well-draining soil to live in. Using Gritty, Porous, and potting soil for succulents to provide the proper drainage.
Watering: Watering thoroughly when soil is dry to touch and let it drains completely to prevent roots rot and pest infestations. Water regularly over the summer, reducing watering during the fall and winter seasons.
*NOTE: This variety is quickly grown but is aware when cutting it back, it can revert quickly to its plain bronze color. Keep an eye on them and trim the plain-colored bits, as they will outgrow the variegate very quickly.
