Plectranthus Socotranus: Little Leaves with Soft, Scalloped Edges

Small, rounded leaves give Plectranthus socotranus a fresh, fine-textured look. The pale green foliage grows in pairs along branching stems, creating an appealing little mound.

• 💚 Pale green leaves bring a light, leafy accent
• 🌿 Finely scalloped edges add close-up detail
• 🌱 Paired foliage grows along the branching stems
• 🪴 Small-scale texture contrasts with larger succulent leaves

Enjoy it in a bright, sheltered container where the little leaf shapes are easy to see.

Care Tips

Light: Provide bright, filtered light or gentle morning sun. Shelter from harsh afternoon exposure.

Water: Let the mix dry before watering, then drain fully. Reduce watering in cool or slow-growth conditions.

Soil: Use a freely draining mix that allows air around the roots.

Potting: Choose a pot with drainage holes and repot when the roots need more room.

Temperature: Keep frost-free, away from cold drafts.

Care Instructions

Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

Allow the soil to dry to the level recommended in the Care Tips above before watering again. Always drain excess water.

Weather Conditions

• When ordering, be mindful that living succulents can freeze. If you live in an area that is below 40°F, please consider purchasing plant until the weather is more suitable.
