For your buddha, prepare a well-draining succulent mixture and add rooting hormone. You could also add small pieces or horticultural soil to improve soil drainage. This will allow the roots to develop properly. The potting mix's rate of water loss is slow. You can also let the top of the potting mixture guide you. Bunny Succulents fancy soil with good drainage, and they prefer cactus or succulent potting mix. Bunny Ears have a unique characteristic that requires frequent watering in the winter months. This is especially important for the new, long-leafed leaves. Cacti have no leaves.
