How to care for Crassula ovata cv. Lemon & Lime

Sun/Temperature: It prefers ample sunlight but should be protected from intense summer sunlight. Indoor temperatures ranging from 60°F to 80°F are ideal.

Soil/Watering: Choose well-draining succulent soil, and you can add some sand or perlite to increase ventilation. Watering should be done after the soil has dried to avoid overwatering and root rot.

Pot: Select a pot with good ventilation and ensure enough drainage holes at the bottom to prevent water retention.

Propagation: You can propagate it through stem cuttings. For stem propagation, cut the stem into sections, let them dry, and then insert them into the soil, similarly waiting for them to root.

Disease：Because it is prone to root rot, ensure no water pooling while watering. Please place it in a well-ventilated environment to dry out.

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!!!
