Mini Pachyphytum Compactum

Description

• Pachyphytum Compactum, as the name suggest, is a compact succulent with fleshy leaves.
• The pattern on the leaves and pointy shape resemble uncut gem stones.
• In the cooler months the colour of the leaves is purple-brown while in summer, blue-green becomes more dominant.
• A rosette is formed as the plant ages.
• Individual rosettes can grow to approximately 10cm in diameter.
  
• Pachyphytum Compactum has a clumping habit.

Position and Care

• Pachyphytum Compactum grows best and most compact in a full sun position but will also grow in part shade.
• The plant will need to be placed in shade/under shade cloth during extreme heatwaves as the leaves can burn in strong sun.
• Established plants in the ground are hardy and only need to be watered in extended periods of dry weather.
• Pot plants need to be watered more often but make sure the soil is dry to touch before watering again.
• When planting in pots, use succulent potting mix.
• Not suitable for indoors.
