What does Bingmei Succulent Growth Look Like

Bingmei is a plant of the Crassulaceae family, a pseudo-echeveria plant, and one of the common varieties of the Moon Shadow series. Some succulent lovers also call it ice berry. The leaves are arranged closely in a rosette shape. The normal color is green, and the leaves are pink when in good condition. If it grows too tall, the stems will be slender and the shape will be very similar to "cabbage".

Reasons for the elongation of Bingmei succulents

The main reasons for the leggy growth of Bingmei succulent are unsuitable soil, insufficient light and excessive watering. Measures need to be taken according to the actual situation. Sufficient light should be provided at ordinary times, and shade should be provided in summer. In winter, the light intensity is not high, so it can be maintained in full sunlight. Water when the soil is dry and do not allow water to accumulate.

How to deal with the leggy growth of Bingmei succulent

Bingmei succulent is a relatively compact variety. Generally speaking, as long as it is maintained with granular soil and the granular ratio is maintained at 60%-70%, it can live well.

If you want the Ice Plum Succulent to be in good condition, it not only needs sufficient light, but also a temperature difference of about 10-15 degrees between day and night, and the low temperature is around 0 degrees. As long as the ambient temperature is above 0 degrees, it will basically be more beautiful. If the Ice Plum Succulent grows too tall, you can be beheaded, and the cut off part does not need to be thrown away, but can be planted in a new pot to cultivate a new plant.
