Graptopetalum paraguayense aka Ghostplant

Ghostplant is a low-maintenance plant that requires minimal attention, making it an excellent choice for beginners.

Ghostplant does best in dry soil and should only be watered sparingly.

When it comes to the Ghostplant, a potting soil that is too moist can cause problems. For this reason, it's important to use a soil mix that is well-draining and does not retain too much moisture. A soil that includes perlite or vermiculite for drainage and organic matter for nutrition is ideal. You can achieve this by simply adding a few scoops of perlite to your store-bought cactus soil.

To ensure optimal growth, the Ghostplant prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

During the cold period, it is common for Ghostplant to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more during this period.

Ghostplant is poisonous if ingested. We suggest keeping this plant out of reach if you have children, cats, or dogs in the home.

Ghostplant enjoys dry environments, but misting the plant or providing extra humidity can create an environment for harmful fungi to thrive on the leaves.

The growth of Ghostplant is not rapid and it doesn't necessitate any extra fertilization. By replacing its potting soil once a year, it should receive ample nutrition. It is important to note that plants obtain their energy from the sun's rays, not from fertilizers.

Ghostplant’s native range is Mexico and Arizona.

If you provide your Ghostplant with adequate amounts of sunlight and water, it will bloom.
