Water
This succulents needs thorough watering to keep the leaves from shriveling up when the soil feels dry to the touch. Too much ‘extra’ water on the leaves can affect the appearance of the fine, waxy surface over time.
Overwatering can also rot the roots and force the plant to fall over.
Fertilizer
During the summer months, fed the plant once or twice. In the winter if the plant is in a cool position, the needs no feeding at all.
Sunlight
These are light loving plants and given plenty of light – full sun or partial shade. Place them in a sunny spot like a terrace, patio or window sill to ensure they get lots of natural sunlight.
Soil

Temperature
if placing the succulents outside in warmer temperatures during the summer months, protect them from too much direct sunlight by providing them with some shade. During the winter, they will fend-well indoors. Give them plenty of light to ensure good and compact growth.
