How to cultivate succulent jade butterfly

soil:

Although the jade butterfly looks fleshy and delicate, it has a strong heart. It has strong adaptability to the environment and can grow in ordinary soil. It is better not to choose sticky soil like loess!

Watering:

The Jade Butterfly is a desert plant and can grow normally even with less water. However, the plants at home are more delicate than wild ones. While ensuring sufficient light, they need to be watered frequently and watered when the soil in the pot becomes dry. As for watering time, water at noon in spring and winter, and in the cool afternoon or evening in summer. If you are raising a jade butterfly for the first time and don’t know when to water it, you can touch the leaves of the jade butterfly. If some of them are soft and wilted, it means it is lacking water! Of course, the frequency of watering should be appropriately increased or decreased according to the soil quality.

illumination:

The jade butterfly will enter a dormant period in summer, but it is not very obvious. The plant will grow slowly during the dormant period, and sufficient light is necessary. But at noon in summer, the sun is so scorching that no one would avoid getting melted in such a situation! Therefore, appropriate shade should be provided at noon. Normal light is sufficient at other times. Under sufficient light, the Jade Butterfly plant will have a compact shape and bright green leaves. If there is not enough light, the jade butterfly will be dull and limp, just like a pancake.

Ventilation and seedling acclimatization:

Jade butterflies like well-ventilated environments, and bacteria are easily bred in hot and humid environments. Most of the jade butterflies in the home are purchased directly from the Internet or flower shops, and they need to be acclimatized. Plant the Jade Butterfly in moist soil and place it in a bright and ventilated place for 1 to 2 weeks. Gradually increase the light and water as appropriate. Slowly, the leaves at the bottom of the plant will age. This is normal and new leaves will grow.
