Keeping Your Mother Of Thousands Indoors

If you want to grow this succulent indoors, you should make sure you keep it out of any bright afternoon sun as this can burn its leaves.


It’s also a good idea to be able to place the plant outside where it can get enough sun, and then move it back inside when it’s cold.


However, when moving your plant so that it’s not exposed to harsh weather conditions, it’s always recommended that you do this slowly. The extreme change in temperature can be stressful for the plant.


A good idea could be to bring it in from the garden and keep it in a sheltered spot, such as on a balcony, for a day or so before moving it to a sunny spot inside the house.
