They’ve earned the common name “Plover Eggs Plant” from their plumply oval, egg-shaped leaves, which are coated in purplish-red to reddish-brown speckles, just like those of a plover’s eggs. The pale silvery-green to grey-green leaves are smooth and glossy as they lay folded upon each other, clinging close together with little thick stems that push out occasionally as the plant becomes a densely piled hump.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBest placed in brightly lit areas, the 'Spicy' Adromischus doesn’t mind being in direct sunlight. This plant does appreciate a little shade from the intense midday rays in extremely hot environments, however, an East, South or West facing window. Being compact and slow-growing the 'Spicy' variety of Adromischus doesn’t often grow over four to six inches in a couple of years and so it is small and great enough to fit on any surface. In arrangements with other succulent plants the spotted, oval leaves of this succulent create a touch of fun against others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe  Plover Eggs Plant  is an extremely tolerant, tough succulent and is fairly drought-friendly which makes it very accessible for beginner plant parents, in fact it is quite forgiving in its care. The succulent takes a break over the dormant months in winter so expect slower growth then and don't expect it to bloom for you during these times. Grows gradually in speckles, clumps and branches over the years to eventually create quite a small mounding of speckles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKey

dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQ: My Adromischus Cooperi leaves are wrinkled or shrivelled – what causes this? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA: The leaves going wrinkly usually indicates its running out of store of water and ready to be properly watered. Water it until excess have drained away all around and under, and within few days you must see it plumping up again.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQ: When should I water this plant next?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA. When the water drains entirely from the bottom of the pot after soaking and the surface has been thoroughly dry for a day or two, water thoroughly again. It may be every two weeks during growing seasons, depending on pot size and the prevailing temperatures in your area, and rarely over winter .\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQ: Can Adromischus cooperi grow indoors? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA: Definitely. It requires several hours of bright light per day, to the south preferably, but can withstand it without major problems outdoors on a sunny balcony or terrace in case of a mild season, adding shade in the late afternoon in extreme heat. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQ: How fast do they grow?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA: The Adromischus Cooperi grows slowly, naturally in a very tidy fashion. These plants rarely get more than four to six inches tall even after a few years and will clump out rather than reaching to any height.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQ: When should I repot this?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA: For this slow-growing plant, you typically need to repot it once every 2 to 3 years. Repot your plant in the springtime or in summer, and use an adequately draining container for the task.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQ: Is this plant safe to have near pets? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA: The Adromischus cooperi is not toxic to dogs or cats nor humans. However, it is wise to prevent our furry companions from eating any kind of succulent house plant since ingesting huge quantities can result in some kind of light indigestion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plant orbit Nain","offers":[{"title":"Bare Rooted","offer_id":43808390348939,"sku":null,"price":149.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\" White Plastic Pot","offer_id":43808390381707,"sku":null,"price":249.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\" Black Plastic Pot","offer_id":43808390414475,"sku":null,"price":249.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1444\/5195\/files\/AdromischusCooperi_Eggplant_2_d8b2e021-59cd-47ac-b60b-a1f2aeda0a5c.webp?v=1772098079","url":"https:\/\/plantorbit.com\/products\/adromischus-cooperi-egg-plant","provider":"Plant Orbit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
