One of my favorite succulent shades of all, and I have a lot of favorites, are the ones in shades of pink. Although the soil may still be relatively moist at depth, feel free to water your plant as long as the top one inch of the soil feels dry. You place your finger into the soil or potting mix to check whether the top two inches have moisture or not. If the top 2 inches are moist, the plant does not need more water. It prefers relatively infrequent watering, with almost no water during the winter months.
