Curio talinoides aka Blue Fingers

Blue Fingers presents a moderate level of care, which allows plant enthusiasts with some experience to expand their skills and knowledge.

Blue Fingers should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

To ensure the health of your Blue Fingers, it's crucial to use a potting soil that won't hold too much moisture. A soil that drains well and contains perlite or vermiculite for drainage and organic matter for nutrition is ideal. Adding a few handfuls of perlite to store-bought cactus soil is an easy way to create this type of soil mix.

Blue Fingers thrives in bright and direct sunlight. To ensure your plant receives enough light to survive, place it less than one foot from a window. The current weather in your area may affect the placement in your home. For example, if you live in a region that has longer and more intense periods of sunlight, then you may want to place the plant farther away from the window to avoid direct sunlight and reduce the risk of sunburn. Alternatively, if you live in a region with relatively milder temperatures and less intense sunlight, then you may be able to place the plant closer to the window for increased exposure. Ultimately, the current weather in your area should be taken into consideration when determining the best placement for your Narrow Leaf Chalksticks.

During the wintertime, it's common for Blue Fingers to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more.

Blue Fingers prefers dry environments, so misting the plant to provide extra humidity and allow water to linger on the leaves can create an ideal environment for fungi that can be harmful.
