How to grow blue pine succulent

The succulent blue pine is native to South Africa, so it is very heat-resistant. When it is exposed to strong light, it will turn into a gorgeous purple. Because of this magical characteristic, blue pine is also loved by many people who grow succulents. It is different from ordinary succulents. It has no obvious dormancy period. Its stem is upright with many branches. Its leaves are close to gray-green, and a thin layer of white powder is attached to the surface of the leaves. Its mesophyll is fleshy and has a pointed needle-like appearance.

Blue pine succulent cultivation

There are many things to pay attention to when growing blue pine succulents. First of all, there must be soil suitable for growth. It is recommended to use peat soil combined with river sand. Then, even though it has high light resistance, it is necessary to provide appropriate shade in the summer and water it every two days. In other seasons, it only needs all-day sunshine. After winter, it basically does not need watering. Wait until the soil is dry in spring before watering. Remember to use thin fertilizer once a month.

Blue pine maintenance precautions

When planting blue pine succulents, you can choose to propagate by cuttings. After planting, place it in a cool place first. Wait until new roots grow in the place where it takes root, and then slowly increase some light to it. This will allow it to be better maintained. In spring and autumn, pay attention to the dryness and wetness of the potting soil. It is best to wait until it is completely dry from the inside out before watering it thoroughly.
