Plant Care
Light: Provide your Crassula calico kitten variegated with bright, indirect sunlight. It can tolerate some direct morning sunlight but should be protected from intense afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Temperature: Maintain a warm environment with temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). These succulents are not frost-tolerant and should be protected from temperatures below 40°F (4°C).
Watering: Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Water sparingly, approximately once every 2-4 weeks, depending on the season and local humidity levels. Ensure the pot has good drainage, and never let the plant sit in standing water, as succulents are susceptible to root rot.
Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix. You can also amend regular potting soil with perlite or sand to improve drainage.
Fertilization: Fertilize sparingly. During the growing season (spring and summer), you can feed your Crassula calico kitten variegated with a diluted, balanced, liquid succulent fertilizer once a month. Avoid fertilizing during the dormant season (fall and winter).
Pruning: Trim or pinch back leggy or discolored growth to encourage a bushier, more compact shape. Pruning is optional but can help maintain the plant's appearance.
Repotting: Repot your Crassula calico kitten variegated every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a container that allows for proper drainage and provides some room for growth.
Pests: Keep an eye out for common succulent pests like mealybugs and aphids. If you notice any infestations, treat them promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
Propagation: These succulents can be propagated from stem or leaf cuttings. Allow cuttings to callus for a day or two before planting them in well-draining soil.
