hey there :)💜
This photo is for the first time I bought the succulent, and since then, its leaves have fallen a lot, and it is not as thick as it used to be. Can you tell me what could be the reason?

I don’t own Aeoniums, but I believe they go dormant in the summertime, which could be part of the leaf drop issue.  They are winter growers.  I don’t have personal experience with that, however.

Aeonium are winter dormant succulents so it wouldn’t be that.  Just  take care when watering it. Does the soil drain well. I add a lot of xtra perlite to my succ soil. And since it’s in a new surrounding they sometimes have to adjust. Here I am giving advice to you about when your succ is dormant when I just realized that I accidentally fertilized some of my succulents that were dormant.  I’m so angry with myself!!  But I do know that aeonium are winter dormant.

It’s probably because they are dormant atm. They are active in the winter and dormant in the summer…they are my newest obsession!! Some of mine are doing that too and I freaked out and went to my local nursery and they laughed (again) and told me they were fine!

I’m so sorry see there I go messing up the dormancy again.  Aeonium are summer dormant so the leaves dropping could be do to that.  And they require less watering when they’re dormant.  Just ignore my response from the other day.  Again I’m sorry for the misinformation.  I wish there was a mnemonic device for remembering the more popular succulents and when they’re dormant.
