You should spray your succulent leaves, especially their undersides, with water, insecticidal soap, or even neem oil, if you find any warning signs. WD-40 or other oil can be used to protect your tools, as most gardeners do not keep them in their original packaging. * Remember to also clean pots and tools with bleach. If you're into terrariums, fairy gardens, or decorative arrangements, you are already familiar with putting figurines in your pots! Rhizomes are a type of root, but they grow horizontally. We understand your desire to grow this succulent in a sunny area in your garden.
