- Light Requirements: The Ghost Plant thrives in bright, indirect sunlight, but can also tolerate full sun. It’s best to gradually introduce it to full sun exposure to prevent sunburn. If grown indoors, place it near a sunny window where it can receive at least 4-6 hours of light per day. Avoid sudden changes in light conditions, as the plant may become stressed and lose its vibrant color.
- Watering Schedule: Water your Ghost Plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, which is a common issue with succulents. During the growing season (spring and summer), water moderately, while in the dormant months (fall and winter), reduce the frequency. Be cautious of excess moisture and ensure proper drainage.
- Soil Preferences: This succulent prefers well-draining soil to prevent water retention around the roots. A cactus or succulent potting mix is ideal for providing the drainage needed. You can also improve drainage by adding perlite or pumice to the soil mix. Avoid dense or heavy soils that retain moisture, as they can suffocate the roots and cause damage to the plant.
- Leaf Structure: The Ghost Plant’s leaves form beautiful rosettes, with each leaf tapering to a rounded point. The leaves are thick and fleshy, typical of succulent plants, designed to store water for drought conditions. The rosettes can spread to around 6 inches in diameter, making it a compact but eye-catching plant. The ghostly gray coloring of the leaves adds to its unique and ethereal appearance.
- Blooming: In the right conditions, the Ghost Plant produces star-shaped flowers that emerge on long stalks in the spring. These flowers are typically pale yellow or white and add a lovely contrast to the muted tones of the foliage. While the flowers are small, they are quite charming and can attract pollinators like bees to your garden.

Testimonials
Natalie"Came in perfect condition--thank you!"
Matthew"Amazing Plants! I was so happy to see these way larger than the plants pictured because I know how slow most cycads grow."
Nathaniel"This is the first time I've ever ordered plants online, so I had no idea what to expect. When I saw the description of 'comes in a 4" growers' pot' I figured I'd be getting some fairly small plants--nope! The bamboo palms were fully 2' tall from root to top leaf, and perfectly healthy. All 5 plants were VERY well secured in their box, to the point that the bottom layer was even spray-foamed to the cardboard! I couldn't ask for a better experience and I'm so excited to see these plants grow. Five stars!"
Trisha"Thrilled with my purchase! This seller went above any beyond! The packaging was very careful, the plants are so much bigger than I expected, and I was given more than what was depicted in the item description. 10/10 all round!"
R"This is SO BEAUTIFUL! Packaging was perfect and efficient, plant was in excellent condition. I'm in love with this plant and I will definitely order more."
