Succulent Tree Care Tips

Succulent trees, like jade plants or desert roses, need bright, indirect sunlight for at least 4–6 hours a day to grow healthy and vibrant. Plant them in a well-draining succulent or cactus mix, and always use a pot with drainage holes to prevent root rot. Water sparingly—only when the soil is completely dry—and avoid letting water sit at the base. During spring and summer, feed monthly with a diluted balanced fertilizer, but reduce watering and feeding in fall and winter to give the plant a natural resting period. Keep them in a warm, draft-free spot with good airflow to maintain their shape and long-term health.
