Graptopetalum Peach Moonstone02

Graptopetalum amethystinum also known as “Peach Moonstone,” is a popular succulent plant from the Crassulaceae family. Its plump, rounded, and pastel-colored leaves resemble ripened peaches, making it highly sought after by succulent enthusiasts.

Plant Features
 • Leaves: Egg-shaped to spherical, thick, and fleshy. Leaves are coated with a protective layer of white farina. Under bright light and significant temperature differences, leaves display shades of pink to purple, resembling ripe peaches.
 • Growth Form: Compact, with leaves arranged in a rosette around upright or semi-trailing stems.
 • Flowers: Star-shaped flowers bloom in spring. Petals are pale yellow with red tips or red spots.

Growth Habits:

Peach Egg prefers a warm, dry, and well-lit environment. It has strong drought tolerance and thrives in loose, well-draining, and breathable soil. It does not have a significant dormancy period and can tolerate relatively strong sunlight.

In environments with prolonged sunlight and noticeable temperature differences, its colors become more vibrant, and the plant’s shape becomes more compact and attractive. If light is insufficient, the leaves will appear pale green, flat, sparse, and more widely spaced.

Spring and autumn are ideal seasons for outdoor cultivation. However, Peach Egg is not tolerant of the hot and humid weather of summer, during which its growth slows down under high temperatures and drought conditions.
