How to fertilize Tree Aeonium

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Tree Aeonium after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Hi-my plants is getting all stretched out. I assume it needs more sunlight. It's in a plastic pot. Should I repot it now and move outside or is it too cold at night for it? #TreeAeonium

Not looking great! #TreeAeonium My girl is looking spindly and has these black spots on some of her leaves. Is her pot too small? Should I repot and bury her deeper? I’ve done nothing different except she started this about 2-3 months ago. Not sure if it’s the dryness in the house? TIA! #SucculentSquad

What is messing with my #treeaeonium? Something is eating the leaves, and I am pretty sure that it is also leaving a slime-like residue. It is also making the leaves die. I'll quarantine it for now. #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #planttherapy #plantcorner #plantlove #iloveplants #newgrowth #planttlc #greggang #adhdplantlovers

How do I make my #treeaeonium grow nice and tall? I have this big guy. He's already pretty big, but I wonder how I can make him grow taller. I have no grow lights ATM, so I can't do that. Also, I wonder how tall he can get. Edit: I have a bathroom with an infrared light bulb, so I can stick it in there. #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #planttherapy #plantcorner #plantlove #iloveplants #newgrowth #planttlc #greggang #adhdplantlovers

Does a potential snail threaten the health of my #treeaeonium? Today, when I woke up, I saw what seemed to be snail slime in some places in my Tree Aeonium's pot. I don't know if it will cause a threat to it. #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #planttherapy #plantcorner #plantlove #iloveplants #newgrowth #planttlc #greggang #adhdplantlovers

What other plant parents say












Get succulent soil from a home improvement store like Lowe’s or Home Depot, it helps it stay alive better. Make sure to have a pot with drain holes in the bottom, and not a miniature pot, around 4-6 inches should do. This plant craves sun light, and when it gets enough, it will turn towards the sun and turn a dark, rich red/purple color, so make sure to put this plant in a place with a lot of sunlight. It needs to be watered about every 6 days plus or minus but if you forget , no worries, it’s leaves will wrinkle but soon after you water it, the leaves will plump up again since this is a resilient plant.
