Description

The Burro’s Tail succulent is a popular and visually striking houseplant known for its cascading, tail-like stems covered in plump, blue-green leaves. This unique appearance makes it a favorite for hanging baskets and containers where its trailing growth can be showcased. The plant has long, trailing stems that can reach up to 4 feet in length. The stems are densely packed with fleshy, teardrop-shaped leaves that are a soft, pastel green or blue-green color. The leaves are quite delicate and can fall off easily, so handle the plant with care.

Size: Your plant will come in a 4" pot. This succulent can grow stems up to 2-4 feet long, making it an ideal choice for creating a dramatic, cascading effect in hanging baskets or elevated containers.

Growth Rate:  The Burro’s Tail has a slow to moderate growth rate. With proper care, it can produce long, trailing stems over time.

Care Requirements:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. It thrives best in a spot with plenty of light but should be protected from intense, midday sun to prevent leaf burn.

Watering: The Burro’s Tail prefers to be kept on the dry side, similar to other succulents. Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry, and ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent water from sitting at the roots, which can cause rot. Overwatering is a common issue, so it's better to err on the side of underwatering.

Humidity: This succulent is not particular about humidity and can thrive in average indoor humidity levels. It does well in dry conditions, making it suitable for various indoor environments.

Soil: A well-draining succulent or cactus mix is ideal. This type of soil helps prevent water retention at the roots, which is crucial for the plant's health. You can mix standard potting soil with sand or perlite to improve drainage if needed.
