Caring Tips:

Watering: Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Water sparingly to avoid overwatering, as Echeverias are adapted to arid conditions. Increase watering slightly during the active growing season (spring and summer) and reduce it in the dormant winter months.
Temperature: Captain Hay prefers mild to warm temperatures and should be protected from frost and freezing conditions.
Soil: Use well-draining succulent or cactus soil mix to ensure proper drainage.
Container: When planting in a container, ensure it has good drainage to prevent waterlogged roots.
