The Chocolate Soldier is extremely easy to care for and has gorgeous blue-green fuzzy leaves that are rimmed with chocolate brown.

Succulents tend to require less watering and fertilizing than other houseplants, but they may need additional nutrients from time to time. A good succulent plant food product may contain a variety of organic plant nutrients, trace minerals, natural growth hormones, humic + fulvic acids, and worm castings. Overfeeding your succulent, especially with high levels of nitrogen, can cause leaf and root rot problems.

Use this soil mix for succulents, palms, cactus, citrus, plumeria, and some tropical plants. A good Succulent, Palm and Citrus soil mix is a coarse, well-drained soil that is about one-third sand. It should absorb water quickly and provide excellent drainage. This soil mix should contain ingredients such as recycled forest products, pumice, sand, bark fines, dehydrated poultry manure, and hydrolyzed feather meal.

This beginner-friendly plant is great for a bright indoor spot.
