Highlights
Cotyledon orbiculata var. oblonga 'Grey Sticks': Long, narrow leaves of silvery green with a small reddish tip. The leaves are coated in a thick, powdery layer of natural wax called "farina" that protects the plant in full sun. It is an upright grower that can reach about 8.0" tall and produces coral, bell-shaped flowers on tall bloom stalks.
Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need ample sunlight, good drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
