How to Care for the Plant

Water
The Graptoveria Bashful is no exception. So let's say you live in Arizona then in this case you will need to water the Graptoveria Bashful usually once a week. More importantly you just really need to water your plant once the soil is fully dry to prevent over watering and root rot.
Pruning
Pruning is only necessary for aesthetic reasons to tidy your Graptoveria plant up from time to time if absolutely necessary. Do prune back any damaged, yellow or dead to improve the look and to keep your plants healthy and disease-free. Always use a sharp pair of scissors or a knife that you have sterilized before use before attempting any pruning.
Fertilizer
To encourage a good, strong root system and healthy growth use a ready-mixed succulent or cactus fertilizer that has been diluted to 25%. Fertilize just once during the summertime growing season.
