Plant Care

Light: Provide your Red Graptosedum with plenty of bright, indirect sunlight. It thrives in full to partial sun. Indoors, place it near a sunny window, preferably a south or west-facing one.

Temperature: Maintain a warm indoor environment with temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect the plant from cold drafts and temperature fluctuations.

Watering: Allow the top inch or two of the soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly but less frequently. In the growing season (spring and summer), increase the frequency slightly, but always ensure that the soil dries out between waterings.

Soil: Use well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix to ensure proper drainage and prevent waterlogged soil. A mix of potting soil, perlite, and sand works well.

Pot: Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water accumulation at the root level. Red Graptosedum prefers slightly crowded conditions and doesn't require frequent repotting.

Fertilization: Feed your plant with a balanced, water-soluble succulent fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can harm the plant.

Pests: Red Graptosedum is generally pest-resistant. However, keep an eye out for common succulent pests like mealybugs or aphids, and treat any infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
