Alworthia ‘Black Gem’ 4”—A Bold, Low-Maintenance Succulent

Meet the Alworthia ‘Black Gem’ 4”, a stunning hybrid succulent with glossy, deep green leaves that darken to an almost black hue when exposed to bright light. With its compact, clumping growth habit, this easy-care beauty is perfect for adding a modern, architectural touch to your plant collection.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light—more light deepens its rich color.

• Water: Follow a “soak and dry” routine—water thoroughly, then let the soil dry out completely before watering again.

• Humidity: Prefers dry conditions—no misting needed!

What It’s Telling You:

• Happy Signs: Firm, upright leaves with a deep green to black hue.

• Needs TLC: Wrinkled leaves? It’s thirsty. Mushy or yellowing? Ease up on watering.

Good News for Pet Parents:

Not pet-safe—best to keep this striking succulent out of reach from curious pets.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:

• The 4” size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the height of the plant.
