Last watered 2 weeks ago
@HipDogfennel4 Hi Grace, No. From what I understand Dappled Snowbrush like well draining soil and are drought tolerant which means they like to dry out between waterings. A potting soil or succulent soil mixed with perlite and coco coir is a good mix for them. Water thoroughly, allowing the water to completely drain off then don't water them again until the soil is completely dry. They are very susceptible to root rot. Also never put them in direct sunlight. Being that they grow on the jungle floor under a canopy of trees they like indirect or dappled light. Harsh sunlight from a West facing window will burn their leaves.
