Water
A common watering mistake is that you can water your succulents by simply spraying water on their leaves. in fact, that only works for propagating leaves and baby plants. in adult plants, it's the root that absorbs water and nutrition. use watering bottles or cans that have a long small spout to water gently and directly at the root ball.
Sunlight
Partial sun generally means less than six and more than four hours of sun per day. Plants for partial sun will do well in a location where they receive a break from the sun each day. They like the sun but will not tolerate a full day of it and need at least some shade each day.
Fertilizer
As with most houseplants, they will benefit from an occasional feed during the growing season. An organic, balanced, liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer is recommended.
