INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROOTING CUTTINGS 
Insert the cutting 1 inch deep into well-draining succulent soil. Water only when the soil is completely dry, using a small amount to avoid rot. Roots typically form within 2–3 weeks—keep the plant in bright, indirect light (not full shade) during this period. Once rooted, gradually introduce it to full sun over 7–10 days to prevent leaf scorch.
