About Cotyledon orbiculata cv.

Cotyledon orbiculata cv. is a lovely rare succulent that grows into a cluster with chubby powdery leaves that look like ping pong paddles. The leaves will turn dark purple with farina covered, which makes them very charming in the garden.

How to care for Cotyledon orbiculata cv.

Sun/Location: As a winter grower, Cotyledon Orbiculata CV does not have a high requirement for sunshine. Bright full sunlight or grow light is ideal for them in growing seasons and make sure they can maintain their color and form.

Watering: Cotyledon orbiculata cv. holds water pretty well. Its chubby leaves can tolerate long-term neglect. The best way of watering is ''the soak and dry'' method. Water thoroughly when succulent soil is dry. You can use your finger to check if the potting soil dries out to make sure succulents will not sit in wet soil.

Propagation: For cuttings propagation, it is important to place them in an airy location and no heatwave to avoid root rot. It is also the best way to prevent some diseases and pests. Click here to learn How to PROPAGATE SUCCULENTS FROM STEM CUTTINGS!

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.

Sorry. No International Shipping for now!!!
