How to fertilize Blushing Aeonium

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.

To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Blushing Aeonium after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Toxicity
Greg does not have confirmed data on this plant’s toxicity. If you, a family member, or a pet consumes plant material of unknown toxicity, it’s always best to consult a medical professional.
If you or someone else ingested this plant, call Poison Control at US (800) 222-1222. If a pet consumed this plant, contact your veterinarian or the ASPCA at US (888) 426-4435.
Humidity
Blushing Aeonium prefers dry environments. Providing extra humidity or misting your plant allows water to linger on leaves, which can create the perfect environment for harmful types of fungi.
Soil
Blushing Aeonium is very sensitive to wet soil, so choose a potting soil that drains very well and doesn’t retain too much moisture. A good soil will have lots of perlite or vermiculite for drainage and some organic matter for nutrition. A few handfuls of perlite added to regular store-bought cactus soil will do the trick!
Fertilizer
Blushing Aeonium grows very slowly and doesn’t require added fertilizer. Replacing your plant’s potting soil once a year should provide them with more than enough nutrition. Remember, plants get their energy from sunlight, not fertilizer!
Dormancy
It’s common for Blushing Aeonium to go dormant in the summertime and you may notice their growth slow down. Waterings should be spaced out more during this time.
Native Region
Blushing Aeonium is native to Macronesia, and East Africa to Yemen.
Flowers
Blushing Aeonium produces flowers in the wild, but does not flower when kept as houseplants.
