Aeonium “Lily Pad”

Caring for your Aeonium
 
Pot: Aeoniums does well, grown in containers, but grows at their best planted out in a mixed garden or rockery. Given the space, they will form lovely well-branched shrubs.
 
Soil: The plants are very willing and can adapt to most soils, a well drained, growing medium with organic matter works best.
 
Light: The brighter the light, the more colourful your plant will be. Aeoniums does well in full sun. They will also grow in shadier conditions, but grows tall and lose their showy colours.
 
Water: Aeoniums can be drought tolerant when well established, but they will grow their best with weekly watering or every second week, depending on your conditions.
