Pachyphytum oviferum, also known as the Moonstone succulent, is a beautiful and popular type of succulent from the Crassulaceae family. Here’s a clear, detailed explanation about it:


🌸 Overview

  • Scientific name: Pachyphytum oviferum
  • Common names: Moonstone succulent, Sugar Almond plant
  • Family: Crassulaceae (same as Echeveria and Sedum)

🌱 Appearance

  • The plant has plump, egg-shaped leaves (hence the name oviferum — “egg-bearing”).
  • Leaves are smooth, rounded, and covered with a powdery coating called farina, giving them a soft, pastel look.
  • Leaf colors vary depending on light — they can appear pale blue, lavender, pink, or silvery-green.
  • Grows in compact rosettes, usually around 10 cm (4 in) tall and 20 cm (8 in) wide.

🌼 Flowers

  • Blooms in late winter to early spring.
  • Flower stalks are long and arching, with small, bell-shaped flowers that are red, orange, or coral-pink.
  • The flowers attract pollinators like hummingbirds and bees.

🌞 Care Tips

1. Light

  • Prefers bright, indirect sunlight or direct morning light.
  • Too little light causes leggy growth and pale leaves.
  • Avoid harsh afternoon sun if outdoors — it can burn the farina.

2. Water

  • Drought-tolerant, like most succulents.
  • Water only when the soil is completely dry.
  • Overwatering causes root rot and may make leaves drop or wrinkle.

3. Soil

  • Needs well-draining soil, such as cactus or succulent mix.
  • You can improve drainage with perlite or pumice.

4. Temperature

  • Prefers 18–24°C (65–75°F).
  • Protect from frost — below 5°C (41°F) can damage the plant.

5. Propagation

  • Very easy to propagate by leaf cuttings or stem cuttings.
  • Allow the cut end to callus over for a few days before placing it on soil.

⚠️ Common Issues

  • Leaf drop → Often caused by overwatering or sudden changes in light.
  • Wrinkled leaves → Usually from underwatering.
  • Loss of powdery coating (farina) → Due to touching the leaves too much; it doesn’t grow back.
