Faucaria britteniae quick care tips

Watering

Faucaria britteniae is a drought-tolerant succulent variety, so watering around once per week in the peak growing season is advised. Ensure the soil dries between waterings following the 3 Ds: drench, drain and dry. It is also advised to completely stop watering when conditions are frosty, keeping the plant dry for several months at a time over winter.

Feeding

Faucaria britteniae likes to be fed to bring out its best forms and colours. We recommend feeding with a liquid seaweed feed every 2 weeks in the main growing season from April to September. A feed we recommend is the one from our friends at LittleGreenSeaweed.

Ideal soil

Faucaria britteniae needs free draining soil to thrive. We recommend a mixture of 1/3 John Innes no.2, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 coconut coir. The soil mix we offer here is similar in composition to this.

Faucaria britteniae

Faucaria britteniae is a species native to South Africa. These prehistoric looking succulents grow into nice tight forming clumps, and produce these beautiful golden flowers during the colder months.

Their leaves resemble the shape of jaws of an animal, perfect plant for kids, big or small.

Easy plant to care for, re-pot in the spring and water once the soils dry.
