In the vibrant season of spring, our plants awaken from their winter slumber, ready to embrace the sun's warm embrace. It's the perfect time to repot your succulents, providing them with fresh soil to support their growth. What soil is best for succulents? A well-draining mix, such as cactus potting soil or succulent potting soil will keep your succulents happy and healthy. We do have the option here at the nursery, to be one of the first people to get their hands on our BRAND NEW Looe Valley Plants Succulent Potting Mix! A pre-made mix of perlite & compost, hand mixed and prepared by myself (Alisha), it is what i use on my succulents here in the nursery.

As the temperatures rise, so does the need for proper hydration. How much water is needed for your plants during the summer months? Succulents are drought-tolerant, so make sure to water them sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Transitioning into Autumn, our plants start to slow down, preparing for the cooler days ahead. Reduce watering frequency as the sunlight wanes, allowing your plants to enter a semi-dormant state. Keep an eye out for any signs of overwatering, such as mushy leaves.
Winter calls for a cozy care regimen for your plants. Place them in well-lit areas to ensure they receive sufficient light during the shorter days. Succulents prefer cooler temperatures during this season, so be mindful of drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations that can stress your plants.
Remember, each season brings its own set of challenges and opportunities for your plants. By understanding their needs and providing them with the right care at the right time, you can enjoy a thriving indoor garden all year round.
