How to care for Crassula ‘Moonglow’

Sun/Location: Like most Crassula succulents, Crassula ‘Moonglow’ is not a hardy succulent; they love full sun during the growing season, which means you can grow them outdoors in Spring and Fall. Shade is essential for them in summer to avoid sunburn. Click here to learn how to care for succulents in summer.

Soil/Pot: Succulent plants prefer loose, low fertilizer succulent soil to thrive. Preferably repot them in growing seasons, fill a pot with a drainage hole with soil and place the plant into the new pot, then cover the roots with more soil. Top-dressing rocks can make them prettier and cleaner.

Watering: Crassula ‘Moonglow’ is easily infected with fungal diseases and mealybugs. Placing them in a spot with excellent air circulation is helpful. Like other succulents, they don’t like sitting in water for long. It is recommended to check the potting soil and ensure it is completely dry before watering. Bottom watering is another efficient way to avoid overwatered succulents. Click here to learn how to save overwatered succulents.
