How to take care of it?
🌞 Light
- Thrives in bright, indirect light or partial sun.
- Can tolerate lower light indoors but will grow slower.
💧 Water
- Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
- Overwatering can lead to root rot—err on the dry side.
🌡️ Temperature
- Prefers warm climates between 65–85°F (18–29°C).
- Protect from frost and cold drafts (minimum 50°F / 10°C).
🌫️ Humidity
- Tolerates average household humidity.
- Great for arid environments due to its succulent-like nature.
🌱 Soil
- Use a well-draining soil mix, such as one designed for succulents or cacti.
🌟 Fertilizer
- Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
- No need to fertilize in winter.
✂️ Pruning
- Regular pruning encourages bushy growth and prevents legginess.
- Trim stems to propagate new plants easily.
🐾 Pet Friendly?
- Mildly toxic if ingested by pets, so keep it out of reach of curious furry friends.
1. Get the scissors
Cut the stems of your flowers at a 45° angle using clean and sharp scissors.
2. Fill the container with water
It is important for your flowers to always be hydrated. For best results, change the water in your flowers daily. The water should always look transparent and clean whenever you put your flowers in. Tip: Remove any leaves or foliage that are below the water level.
3. Find the ideal spot
Unlike planted flowers, cut flowers cannot withstand direct sunlight. Keep them in a cool place and away from direct heat of the sun.
