Watering and Light Recommendations

Indoors:

Empty excess water from the saucer as succulents dislike sitting in water. Allow the soil to completely dry out before watering again.

Outdoors:
- Summer Watering: Water the succulents every two weeks by soaking them and allowing them to dry before watering again.
- Winter Watering: Water the succulents once a month.

Technical Details for Care:

- Light Requirements: Requires bright light for most of the day or constant dappled shade.
