1. Lighting Requirements
Wandering Dudes flourish in bright, indirect sunlight. While they can tolerate low light conditions, their vibrant leaf colors thrive when they receive ample light. Direct sunlight should be avoided as it can scorch the leaves.
2. Watering Schedule
These plants prefer evenly moist soil but can suffer from root rot if overwatered. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, but make sure to empty the saucer to prevent water from sitting at the bottom.
3. Soil Preferences
A well-draining potting mix is essential for the Wandering Dude. A standard houseplant mix or a mixture designed specifically for succulents can work well.
