How to grow the succulent plant Bluebird Longevity

Characteristics of this plant

First, it prefers semi-shaded environments. It cannot be completely hidden, as this is not conducive to its growth and will cause its leaves to fade, especially the brown varieties, which will turn green. It also cannot be exposed to strong light, otherwise it will be burned and develop brown spots, or it will just grow too tall, affecting its overall shape. Then there are its requirements for soil. Generally speaking, its requirements for soil quality are relatively high, and we will discuss the details below. In addition, there is fertilizer. Generally speaking, it does not demand too much for this. Scientific fertilization can promote its growth, but it also requires our special attention.

Specific methods

Light: As we said before, it cannot be without light, nor can it be too strong or too much light, so it is suitable to be placed in a location with good light but no direct sunlight. In winter, its demand for sunlight will be relatively higher, so except for direct sunlight at noon, you can let it receive more sunlight at other times.

Soil: In order for it to thrive, we must pay attention to the quality of the soil when planting. We can choose peat soil as potting soil, and also choose some media with good drainage, such as pearl stone, snake wood chips and so on. In addition, we can also repot it regularly, about once every one to two years.

Fertilizer: The stage with greater demand for nutrients is its vigorous development period. During this stage, nutrients can be applied every ten days or half a month. We can choose animal manure or other organic fertilizers. However, it is basically not necessary in winter because its growth rate is very slow at this time.
