Not all succulents are equally hardy and some can be real drama queens. But by simply choosing the right succulents that are less susceptible to disease and pests, you can vastly improve your chances of growing amazing plants and not having to worry about them too much.
Any plant classified as a succulent is often thought to be hardy but many succulents simply aren't and can be almost impossible to grow in certain climates. Persistent rain, for instance can cause fungal disease or other water related issues in some cultivars while others can have no issues.
In this video i'll discuss the benefits of simply choosing succulents that are less susceptible to disease and easier to grow.

Loving your channel. I agree about preferring the hardier succulents. I bought a black prince a few years ago because I had to have a black succulent and it grew so healthy with a couple of pups but then after a week of heavy rain it eventually rotted from the inside. Same with my imbricata and the variegated campfire which got fried by our sun in Perth. I don’t have lots of time to put in extra effort for many succulents as I deal with chronic pain so there’s times where I won’t go outside for 3-4 days or up to a week so I prefer the hardier ones in general. Having said that I will always crave some of those prettier echeverias. lol

Ahh, yes- the Imbricata. So pretty but what a pain in the backside 😅And if it's not the weather it will be mealies! It's like some of them have a death wish 🙈😅 Sending lots of love- i've heard summer in Perth was horrendous this year 😔

@@SucculentGrowingTips Yes it was really bad. Lost count of the amount of heatwaves we went through. Many succulents got blackened tips & struggled from dehydration. I lost a few non succulent plants in pots if I forgot to water them daily. 😳

I’m a sucker for a pretty face when I’m at the nursery. Unfortunately, that occasionally means the plant will not make it through the winter. Thank you for your advice.
