Pale Spring Beauty, Serpentine Springbeauty, Pale ClaytoniaHow to care for Pale Spring Beauty
Water
Pale Spring Beauty should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
Soil
Pale Spring Beauty loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.
Toxicity
Ploi's records do not contain confirmed information on the toxicity of this particular plant. In the event of accidental ingestion of plant material with questionable toxicity by you, a family member, or a pet, it is always a good idea to consult a healthcare professional.
Fertilizer
The Pale Spring Beauty should be repotted either when it doubles in size or annually, whichever comes first. Providing new potting soil with all the vital nutrients annually is enough to support the growth of the plant, and thus, there is no need for fertilizer. Remember that plants derive their energy from the sun, not fertilizer.
Growth-pattern
Pale Spring Beauty grows vertically and new growth emerges from the top of the plant.
Region of origin
Pale Spring Beauty’s native range is Western N. America - British Columbia southwards.
