Highlights
Graptopetalum bellum (previously Tacitus) (Hunt): A unique, flat rosette of densely-packed leaves. It can show tones of lavender, pink, and sea green. The whole rosette can grow to 4.0" in diameter. Its bloom is quite a spectacle of numerous large, hot pink flowers on tall bloom stalks. This species has larger flowers than other members of Graptopetalum because it is pollinated by hummingbirds.
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 bright 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.
