Cultivation tips for Sempervivum Colorockz® Coconut Crystal®
Plant Sempervivum Colorockz® Coconut Crystal® in well-drained, preferably sandy or gravelly soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH. Maintain spacing of approximately 10–15 cm between plants to allow for clump expansion. Water sparingly, especially in winter, as excessive moisture can cause root rot.
