Wondering her state
#BlackRose hello everyone! π©Άπ± I received this beauty in Finland after a 24 days trip from the Canary Island, showered her and soaked her roots in water with musk for 24 hours. Now potted here on a 3:1 perlite and cactus soil mix on an absorbent cement pot with a drainage hole. Watered it just a bit after 2 days resting in the new mix, now wondering if you have any advice on how long should her be in the shadow, if you think sheβll survive and looking ok in this spot or should I take it out?, the weather is super nice here these days, but whatever and any other advise you guys may share with me Iβd appreciate!

Samuel - great find! This is a type of succulent so you will want to relocate it outdoors (assuming warm / hot in your area). οΏΌ try to transition it outside over several days - that way it wonβt shock it. it will burn in too strong of sun so try to site it somewhere that it can get afternoon shade or a a bit of a break midday when the rays are st their strongest.
@userd0b317ba Samuel that plant is a beauty! I know nothing about them. But maybe someone else can help you out. Hashtag help #HappyPlants #GregGang enjoy your plant care journey. Welcome to Greg!!
Mornin, Samuel! I agree with @JubilantTearose - the succulents thrive in the sunlight! I have a few different kinds.
they stay in my greenhouse and get watered well when the temperature is above 90Β°.
Over time, they can look like little trees! οΏΌ

@userd0b317ba what is that plant?! It's amazing
@SportyWhiskfern it arrived very dry from the long trip it had, so I was suggested (by the seller) to let the roots rest in a bowl of water during 24hr along with the musk that came protecting it. Itβs supposed to reactivate the plant back π€πΌβ¨
@AshleyG It is supposed to be an Aeonium Arboreum βZwartkopβ (Black Rose) βΊοΈ Let hope I can keep it alive and make her thrive β¨π±
