Graptopetalum Mirinae Variegated

Graptopetalum Mirinae Variegated is a beautiful and unusual succulent prized for its fleshy leaves and distinctive variegated colouring. The compact rosettes display shades of green and cream, often developing pink to lavender tones with bright light and cool temperatures. Its unique colouring and attractive rosette form make it a standout addition to succulent collections, containers, and sunny windowsills.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROOTING CUTTINGS

Allow fresh stem cuttings to callus for several days before planting. Insert the cutting about 1" deep into a well-draining succulent mix. Keep the soil mostly dry while roots begin to develop, watering sparingly only when the soil is completely dry.

Keep the cutting in bright shade during the rooting period. Once roots have formed and new growth appears, gradually acclimatize the plant to brighter sunlight to prevent sunburn.
