Cotyledon Pendens - Cliff Cotyledon Succulent Plant

Cotyledon pendens, also known as "Cliff Cotyledon," is a beautiful succulent plant that has thick, fleshy leaves that dangle gracefully from hanging pots or baskets.
Care Guide:
- Light: Cotyledon pendens thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Place your plant near a sunny window where it can receive several hours of sunlight each day. Be cautious of direct sunlight, as too much exposure can lead to sunburn on the leaves.
- Water: Water your Cotyledon pendens sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's best to err on the side of underwatering with this plant.
- Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix for your Cotyledon pendens. You can also add perlite or sand to improve drainage.
- Temperature: Cotyledon pendens prefers warm temperatures between 18-29°C. Protect your plant from cold drafts and temperatures below 10°C.
- Humidity: This plant thrives in average indoor humidity levels, but it can tolerate higher humidity levels as well.
- Pruning: To encourage a bushier growth habit, you can trim the trailing stems of your Cotyledon pendens. Use clean, sharp scissors to make clean cuts and propagate the trimmings by rooting them in soil.
- Propagation: Cotyledon pendens can be propagated from stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. Allow the cuttings to dry out for a few days before planting them in soil.
- Fertilising: Feed your Cotyledon pendens with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser diluted to half strength during the growing season.
