Looks pretty but if it doesn’t have enough light it grows too tall & the baby leaves fall off and you end up with a top heavy succulent that’s falling over

These are not a good plant for someone who is inexperienced with plants. They can very easily be overwatered and leaves with die very quickly. These require a lot of care!
