What is the right soil for Toad Rush
Its needs are relatively simple, but one of the most important is making sure its soil is adequately moist. Without proper moisture, the plant can suffer from wilting and stunted growth. To ensure your Toad Rush is healthy, you must choose a potting soil that retains moisture.

During hot summer months, it is important to place the plant away from full sun, as this can cause the leaves to yellow or burn.

By keeping an eye on the current weather in your area, you can make sure your Toad Rush is always in the right place to thrive.
