The amount of sunlight directly affects the color of the foliage.

For example, if you have flowering varieties or varieties with variegated leaves, then if there is a lack of light, the former will not bloom, and the latter will lose color.

How to care

The fat plant does not like excessive watering and excess moisture; this causes its root system to rot and its leaves to wrinkle.

In summer, the soil should be slightly moist, and in winter, almost dry.

In the first case, Crassula should be fed no more than once a week, and in the second - no more than once every three weeks.
