- Light Needs: Position your Chocolate Panda Plant in a spot with bright, indirect sunlight. While it tolerates lower light levels, the plant’s growth and coloration benefit greatly from abundant natural light. Avoid intense direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, and rotate occasionally to ensure even light exposure.
- Watering Schedule: The Chocolate Panda Plant prefers infrequent watering. Let the soil dry out thoroughly between waterings, as its thick, fleshy leaves are designed to retain moisture. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so be mindful of soil moisture and use a pot with drainage holes for best results.
- Soil Recommendations: Choose a well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix. This type of soil helps prevent water retention, which is essential for succulents like the Chocolate Panda Plant. You can also add sand or perlite to standard potting soil to improve drainage.
- Fuzzy, Velvety Leaves: Each leaf is covered in fine, soft hairs, giving it a plush, velvety feel. This unique texture is visually appealing and adds a tactile element to any plant collection, making it a delightful addition for indoor display.
- Distinctive Brown-Tipped Edges: The tips of each leaf are naturally edged with a brown or dark chocolate color, reminiscent of a panda’s markings. These distinctive markings add character and charm, creating an appealing contrast with the plant’s silvery-green leaves.

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."
