Pickle Plant

This beautiful small succulent is now flowering. Just little yellow flowers. It's originally from Africa. Scientific name is Delosperma Echinatum.

CARE

Light: Bright, indirect light is preferred, but the plant can tolerate a few hours of direct sunlight. Insufficient light can lead to leggy growth.


Watering: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.


Humidity: Delosperma echinatum prefers low humidity and does not require misting.


Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 85°F (18°C and 29°C). Protect from frost and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).


Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix formulated for succulents or cacti.


Fertilizing: Fertilize sparingly, using a cactus or succulent fertilizer, once every 2-3 months during the growing season (spring and summer). Do not fertilize during the fall and winter.
