Plant Care:
Foliage | Thick, fleshy leaves are yellow-green to light orange with reddish tints along the leaf margin. Leaves (2.5 cm long) are semi-cylindrical (i.e., subterete) with pointed tips. |
Stems | Reddish brown, smooth stems lie parallel to the ground with the tip pointed upwards. |
Flowers | White, lightly fragrant flowers are star-shaped with numerous, white stamens (male flower part producing pollen). Flowers are arranged in a flat-topped cluster that resembles an umbel inflorescence. |
Cultivation | Leaves are most colourful when grown in full sun with little water. When plants become leggy, take stem cuttings and grow new plants from them. Allow the soil to dry between watering and make sure there is enough air circulation. Too much soil moisture can promote fungal infections that cause stem rot. |
General advise about Outdoor plants: Don’t kill your plants with kindness by overwatering. The is the most common mistake gardeners make. Different plants need different levels of moisture between watering. Some plants like moist soil between watering’s, while others prefer to dry out completely.
- Check the soil between watering’s with a stick, or even your finger, pushing below the top layer of soil or mulch to determine how moist the soil is.
- A watering can is an excellent choice for watering plants. Water well around the base.
- Water plants thoroughly. Water should run away from the edges of the plant or drain from the hole in the bottom of the pot.
Plants have individual nutrition needs, and beginning gardeners should be careful not to overfeed their plants. New plant installations will not need fertilizers or food of any kind for the first three months as they come from the nursery prepared for transplant.
Plant fertilizers come in three forms:
- Water-soluble: a liquid mixed with water and poured on the plant
- Spikes: a solid food that is pushed directly into the soil and releases nutrients slowly
- Granular: sprinkled around the base of a plant and watered in.
At the nursery these plants are grown under 40-70% shade cloth. If you plant this plant in a brightly lit area (like direct sun) you may experience leaf burn. It is best to acclimate this plant to its environment by keeping it outside and slowly moving it into a sunny area over a week or two to avoid stress before planting.
Keep an eye open for harmful insects or disease on new plant material. New plantings are not as strong as established plants, so they do require more attention. If you see a concern, you can research the issue or contact us for advice.
