When many people hear the word "meaty", the first reaction in their minds is: you can't get drenched in the rain, the roots will rot and rot in the rain, and a pot of good meat will be gone. To be honest, this concern is not unreasonable, after all, most succulents are afraid of stagnant water, and if the basin is a little wet for a long time, it is easy to have an accident.
But not all succulents are so squeamish, some varieties prefer rain, especially in late summer and early autumn, when the rain is frequent but not stuffy, let them "take a bath" in the rain, not only will not have problems, but the more they nourish the more energetic. The following "three kinds of succulents" love to be drenched in the rain, let them "drench" on rainy days, and the leaves are fat and bright.
When it comes to rainbow jade, almost no one doesn't like it. The leaves are round, like water droplets, and they can be colored after raising, slowly turning from green to red and orange, as cute as a small jelly.
It's really resistant, and as long as the soil doesn't harden, rain is a complete plus for it. When it rains, Rainbow Jade likes to be slowly wet by the drizzle, and after the dust on the surface of the leaves is washed away, the whole plant looks shiny, and it is completely a "delicate girl" in the meat world. Moreover, the trace elements in the rain can make its leaves thicker and fuller in color.
But don't look at it as rain resistant, it's not completely unpicky. If you plant in a plastic pot, the soil is not permeable, and the roots will rot after a heavy rain. It is recommended that the rainbow jade be planted in a clay pot or mud pot, with a larger hole at the bottom, so that the water can be drained quickly after the rain, and the roots will not be stuffy.
There is also the need not to bask in the sun immediately after the rain, especially the big sun at noon, the water droplets become a "magnifying glass", which is easy to sunburn the leaves, and it is best to dry it in the shade for half a day before basking in the sun.
Peach Beautybelongs to the Sedum family, the appearance is online, and it is the kind of fleshy that can slowly become beautiful without having to work hard. Its leaves are fat, the color is a little pink orange, and when the sun is good and the water is sufficient, it can raise a dreamy gradient color, which looks like a soft light.
Many people are afraid that it will rot its roots, and as a result, it will be dry, and the color will be gray, and it will not be able to give full play to its appearance advantages. In factPeach BeautyI really like a little rain. After being moistened by the rainPeach BeautyThe leaves are bulging, with a little waxy texture, and the fingers feel tight when they touch it.
ButPeach BeautyIf it rains heavily for several days in a row, the soil is soaked and the sun is not exposed, then it is dangerous. Therefore, it is recommended to let it "drench for a while" in the weather when it is sunny immediately after a short shower. After the rain washes away the dust from the leaves, and then basks in the soft sun, it is like "taking a bath and putting on makeup", and it is refreshed.
Peach BeautyIt is especially suitable for using succulent special soil, adding some particles, such as red jade soil and perlite, so that the root system can breathe smoothly, and no matter how heavy the rain is, you can also raise it boldly and with confidence.
Ji Qiuli sounds like Qiuli's relatives, but they are actually a bit related. Ji Qiuli has smaller leaves, the whole plant is creeping, and sometimes it hangs naturally, and she is a regular on the succulent platter.
Don't look at its small one, its resistance can be strong, especially when it comes to rain, it's not squeamish at all. After Ji Qiuli was moistened by the rain, the leaves changed from the original gray-green to translucent, and the color would appear pink and purple, and the whole plant was as pink as brewing rose tea, which was particularly charming.
And Ji Qiuli especially likes the sun, if it can catch a few days of mild sun after the rain, then its appearance can rise in a straight line. Like Hongzhiyu, Ji Qiuli doesn't like to hold back, she drinks the water when it comes, and the water goes fast, not sticky at all. As long as the potting soil is well drained, even if it rains for a few hours, it is fine.
However, note that although Ji Qiuli is resistant to rain, she should not use a deep pot, it likes to breathe smoothly from its roots. Planting in shallow pots with small calibers is not only easy to move, but also easy to dry water, which is very suitable for balcony parties or window sill families.
If you are the kind of "lazy flower party" and want to grow more fleshy, you might as well try the above. If you choose the right one, let them go to a gentle rain, maybe it will be more effective than spraying water every day and pruning the roots every day.
