Bring a splash of quirky charm to your garden with our Gibbaeum Seed Mix! These tiny succulent seeds grow into adorable, rounded plants that love bright light and a little patience. Perfect for anyone wanting a fun plant project that adds character to any sunny spot.
Instructions:
These seeds grow slowly, so we recommend using the following to sow the seeds:
Plant these seeds on the surface of well draining planting medium consisting of peat, perlite, and sand. Place them in a bright and warm spot(at least 70F). Placing a plastic covering over the seeds until they sprout helps maintain a good humidity and warmth level- it can be removed once the sprouts start to show up.
They seeds usually germinate within 10-15 days or so. Make sure the sprouts don’t receive much direct sunlight for the first couple of months, after which they can be exposed gradually to more light.
These seeds are for the 2026 growing season.
