A succulent can produce a juice that can be used as a bathing solution, which has a refreshing tonic effect. Shortly after, allow some time for the gel to dry up before getting dressed. Spring is the best month to start a succulent garden. It is also the beginning and end of the plant's growth season. If the soil is dry to the top, it's time to water the plant. The soil you use to plant the dracaena needs to be well-drained. Too much water can cause the soil to become dry. * Overwatering succulent seeds can cause fungal diseases, so ensure you water appropriately.

The plant can withstand temperatures between 16-16 degrees Celsius on its upper side and between 26-26 degrees Celsius on its lower side. Silver Crown will not tolerate temperatures below 7° Celsius. If the ground is at least three inches dry, it's dry enough to drink the next beverage. If you leave your plant outside for long enough to fully freeze, the leaves will turn brown. They will then become soft and mushy.

This succulent is an evergreen, large succulent with chunky, wide grey to powdery blue, cupped leaves. It grows in the compact shape of a tightly packed rosete. Sometimes, this will mean you have to remove large portions of the plant. My Grandma discovered a piece that had a large opening at the center, which made it ideal for planting. This can make an interesting conversation piece for your guests. They also thrive in bright places and will provide you with some greenery. Their rosette shapes serve a purpose: they channel rainwater into roots.

Your new succulent should be watered the same way as your other plants. This will continue until next spring/summer when it's time to get more. It needs to sit in the water for at least 24 hours, though a little more would be better. You will need to wait two weeks before watering a newly planted barrel. You can water the barrel from the bottom by placing the plant in an empty tray or dish and allowing it to soak for two or three inches. You can add it to salsa or tacos as a side-dish. Young pads of approximately 4-8 inches are needed for Mexican dish nopales.
