About Oscularia Pedunculata

Oscularia Pedunculata is ornamental succulent belonging to the Oscularia genus in the Aizoaceae family, originating in South Africa or selected coastal areas of the United States. The stem is easy to branch, which always keeps prostrating or erecting. The color comes from slightly reddish or yellowish green to brownish red when the trig stems turn into the old stem. The light green to off-white foliage with reddish tips makes Oscularia Pedunculata more stunning and attractive. The light pink petals and filaments with daisy-shaped flowers appear on the top inflorescence in late spring and early summer, becoming the gorgeous succulent ornaments collection.

How to care for Oscularia Pedunculata

Sun/Location: Place Oscularia Pedunculata in the south-facing location to thrive from sufficient sunshine. Oscularia Pedunculata can be kept on the balcony or yard in other seasons, except for the summer when requiring shade. The compact leaf arrangement, the reddish leaf margin, and the slightly white with reddish dapple foliage when exposed to abundant sunshine for at least 4-6 hours one day, enhance enchantingly attractiveness.

Soil/Pot: Oscularia Pedunculata loves to sit in the free-draining potting soil plus the drainage holes in the pot bottom to evaporate moisture more smoothly. Add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the appropriate drainage, which could evaporate water quickly and maintain an appropriate environment for Oscularia Pedunculata's growth.

Watering: Watering thoroughly a couple of times completely wets the soil when the soil is bone dry. It indicates the time to water when leaves turn soft and wrinkled. Use the watering can with a long thin spout to pour water steadily and gently along the pot edge to the root rather than the foliage, preventing rot and fungal diseases.
