  • Commonly known as MoonstonesPachyphytum oviferum is one of the most recognizable and adorable succulents in the world. It is famous for its exceptionally thick, rounded, egg-shaped leaves that resemble smooth river pebbles or sugar-coated almonds. The leaves are covered in a heavy layer of farina (epicuticular wax), giving them a soft, matte, "frosted" appearance in shades of pale blue, lavender, and baby pink.

    Moonstones are native to the rocky cliffs of San Luis Potosí, Mexico. In their natural habitat, they cling to steep rock faces at high altitudes, which is why they have developed such thick leaves—to store water for long periods of drought.

    In late winter or early spring, Moonstones produce beautiful, nodding bell-shaped flowers. These blooms are a deep greenish-red or coral and are partially enclosed by fleshy sepals that match the color of the leaves. The flowers hang from arching stems like tiny, glowing lanterns, providing a stunning contrast to the pastel foliage.

  • Bright Indirect Light to Full Sun. Plenty of light is required to maintain the pink/purple hues. Low light will cause the plant to turn green and stretch.

    Extremely Gritty Mix. Use a specialized succulent soil or a 70:30 mix of pumice/perlite to potting soil.

    Minimal. Only water when the leaves feel slightly soft or look a bit wrinkled. These are very prone to rot if overwatered.
  • 9 to 11. Typically grown indoors as a houseplant in most regions.
  • Hand-Packed with Care: Using recyclable wraps and crinkle paper, we ensure every succulent arrives healthy and in perfect condition.

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
    *** We pack carefully to protect each plant during transit, so larger orders may arrive in multiple packages
