Care Tips

Light

  • Bright sunlight is best 
  • In climates with hot summers, however, the plant benefits from light afternoon shade

 

Water

  • Water the plant only during dry summer weather
  • Blue finger is a drought-tolerant succulent that can survive long, dry periods
  • Watch for signs that the plant needs water, especially leaves that begin to look shrunken or wilted
  • Water the plant’s site deeply, and then allow the soil to dry completely before watering again
  • Stop watering the plant in late summer or early autumn
  • Withhold water completely during the winter months

 

Soil 

  • Cool soil places the plant at risk for stem rot

 

Temperature

  • Prefer low temperature 
  • Be careful not to allow the plants to stay too warm; otherwise, their growth tends to become stretched and soft

 

Fertilizer

  • Fertilize the plant in early spring with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
  • A balanced fertilizer has equal portions of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium
  • Use a weak fertilizer solution mixed according to the specifications on the fertilizer package’s label
  • Don’t overfertilize the plant. Too much fertilizer produces weak, lush growth that is prone to winter damage
  • Don’t fertilize the plant during autumn

 

Pruning

  • Prune the plant nearly to the ground in early spring
  • Pruning removes old growth and makes room for healthy new growth
