The Lilacina is a succulent, so stores water in its leaves. It won’t need watering very often, once a month is fine and slightly more in the Summer. You can let the soil dry out before watering again.

 Lilacina’s love sunlight, so place it somewhere that gets plenty of natural light.

It’s normal for the lower leaves to die off from time to time, you can simply pinch these ones off.

Too much sun exposure can turn the leaves brown. That’s why natural, indirect sunlight is best for the Lilacina. The plant’s sensitive to extreme or sudden temperature changes. It’ll be happiest in a warm spot away from draughts and radiators.

If you find your lilacina leaves get very brittle, it’s a sign it needs a good drink. If it’s leaves shatter when touched, this means your succulent is very thirsty.

Try not to touch your plant too much, as the powder coating will come off. This doesn’t harm the plant in any way but it does look prettier when untouched.
