About x Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi' (4 inch)
The leaves of x Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi' are thick shaped like elongated spears, loosely arranged in a rosette formation atop elongating stems. This plant is a succulent hybrid variety resulting from a cross between Graptopetalum and Sedum. It exhibits typical succulent characteristics, including adaptation to drought conditions and relatively easy growth.
How to care for x Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi' (4 inch)
Sun/Temperature: x Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi' thrives in ample sunlight, ideally in bright conditions. However, during hot summers, excessive exposure to intense sunlight should be avoided to prevent leaf sunburn. It performs best within temperatures ranging from 45°F to 85°F, exhibiting some heat and cold tolerance.
Soil/Watering: Choose well-draining fertile soil, incorporating a small amount of sand or perlite to enhance drainage. x Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi' is fairly resistant to drought, therefore, it's advisable to let the soil thoroughly dry out between waterings to avoid the risk of root rot.
Pot: It thrives in moderate depth and size pots with suitable drainage holes. Since its root system is relatively shallow,it does not need a very deep pot. Opt for brightly colored to enhance aesthetic appeal.
Propagation: It is suitable for propagation through leaf cuttings or stem cuttings. Healthy leaves or stem cuttings can be inserted into sandy soil after allowing the wounds to dry, waiting for new roots and leaf buds to emerge.
Fertilization: During the growing season, apply diluted fertilizer once a month. However, be cautious to avoid over-fertilization, which could harm the plant. Choose a fertilizer suitable for succulents and reduce or cease fertilization during winter.
