Plant Care

Light: Place in bright, indirect light indoors. Aeonium 'Kiwi' thrives with at least 4-6 hours of sunlight per day. It can tolerate some direct sunlight, especially in the morning or late afternoon, but protect from intense midday sun to prevent leaf scorching.

Watering: Allow the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry during active growth (spring and summer). Reduce watering in winter when growth slows, but do not let the soil dry out completely.

Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.

Temperature: Aeonium 'Kiwi' prefers average room temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Protect from drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.

Humidity: Normal indoor humidity levels are generally suitable. Avoid placing near overly humid areas or sources of moisture.

Fertilizer: Feed sparingly with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half-strength once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing in winter.

Pruning: Trim off any dead or wilted leaves as needed to maintain a tidy appearance and promote air circulation around the plant.

Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings. Allow cuttings to callous over for a day or two before planting in well-draining soil.

Pests: Monitor for common succulent pests such as mealybugs or spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
