Tips&Care: Sinningia leucotricha

The silver-white furry foliage makes all fall in love with this cute succulents. ❤ I did some researches and found originally is from Brazil.

Planting sinningia from the tuber needs a lot of patience for waiting. The plants need time to get sprouting. It gets rotten easily if too often watering before it has mature leaves and well rooting.

.

Light:

Before get sprouting, I put it under the table next to the full-height window. Allow it receiving not too much strong light. After got sprouting and has baby leaves, I move up to get more light for growing the full leaves. You can notice that large leaves means enough light and the long twig with tiny leaves means too less.

.

Pot:

Better go with the deeper one having the same diameter and height. For the diameter of pot = Plant's diameter+ 1.5"

For example if the plant is 3cm (1.2") the pot should be at least 2.7" or 3" the good size will contain enough volume of soil and keeping moist for a week.

.

Watering:

Ideally should water once a week. Together getting enough light and ventilation to make your soil get dry in a week too. Avoid using spray bottles or water a little. Please water until the water drop from drainage hole for a whileee~~slowly count 1-5

Mixture of soil:

It is very easy. You can use cactus soil. It likes well drainage soil but rich. My recipe is,

🌱 3 peat

🌱 1 perlite

🌱 1 vermiculite

🌱 1 pumice

🌱 1 dry leaves

.

My mefia quite light and well drainage that will easily grow well roots for tuber. And will be in time to water once a week. You can also use your indoor soil : sand/perlite (1:1)

Exposed 1/3 of bulb helps it gets fast sprouting. You'll get full leaves in a month
