x Graptoveria 'Nyla' quick care tips

Watering

x Graptoveria 'Nyla' 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

x Graptoveria 'Nyla' 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.

Ideal soil

x Graptoveria 'Nyla' 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.

x Graptoveria 'Nyla'

This magical plant is named after founder Daniel Michael’s daughter, Nyla.

The first time we showed this astonishing plant was at the RHS Malvern Spring Show in 2018.

The original mother plant came from a seed batch in 2014, and out of the hundreds of seeds that came up, Nyla was the only seedling of this colour, as the rest of the seeds were blue. From the same seed batch, we also got x Graptoveria ‘Supernova’ and x Graptoveria ‘Nyla Blue’.

To get the amazing, intense pink colouring, place it in morning or late afternoon sun during the summer, as we have noticed strong, intense light can affect and wash out the colours. Full sun during the darker months.
