Planting & Care
1. Planting: No planting required - simply unbox your Hens and Chicks and place it in an area that receives at least 6-8 hours of bright light each day, either direct sun or bright indirect light.
Your Hens and Chicks can also be planted outdoors in zones 4-9, in well-draining soil and full sun. If you live in a particularly warm climate, your Hens and Chicks can also tolerate partial shade.
2. Watering: Hens and Chicks are succulent plants, so they prefer not to be overwatered. Check the soil for dryness two inches down before watering.
3. Fertilizing: Though not required, you can apply a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month to encourage in the Spring and Summer to promote healthy growth. For the amount to use, follow product label instructions.
