Plant Care Notes

Adromischus prefer bright, indirect sunlight to maintain their compact growth and avoid stretching out like crazy. These succulents also prefer things warm and cozy, so protect them from freezing temperatures by bringing them indoors if needed.

For soil, they love a well-draining mix, such as a cactus or succulent blend, ideally with some added perlite or pumice to keep its roots healthy and dry. Water sparingly, following the trusty soak-and-dry method—give it a good drink until water drains out of the pot and then let the soil dry out completely before watering again. During winter, scale back watering as the plant takes a well-deserved seasonal rest.

Looking to multiply your Key Lime Pie? Propagation is simple! You may take the leaves and place them on top of soil to grow out roots, or take stem cuttings. Patience is key as you give the ends a few days to dry out and callus before planting in soil. Water sparingly as roots form!
