Highlights
Pachyphytum 'Moon Silver': A sweet, chunky plant with powdery, pastel foliage. This dreamy plant grows tall stems and has long, thick leaves. It gets its soft, silvery hue from a coating of natural wax that protects it in full sun. Try to water the soil without getting water on the leaves in order to preserve the powdery coating. This variety is particularly fun to propagate from leaves.
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.
This variety is easy to re-root from leaves and stem cuttings. Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for tips on succulent propagation.
