People enjoy growing succulents for a wide variety of reasons. Perhaps one of the most common reasons is because they are so adorable! If you’ve ever planted any of them at home, then you probably realize it is easy to get addicted to the hobby. That is especially true when you are growing the “heart succulents” (Conophytum bilobum) because they may be the most adorable of all!
The Conophytum bilobum is similar to other succulents because they are easy to care for. You don’t have to stand by and watch them every moment of the day in order to keep them growing well. In fact, all they really need is sun for a few hours a day, a well-drained pot, and make sure that you don’t give them too much water. Sprout them in the right environment and they will grow like crazy. They even sprout flowers in the fall and winter.
You would have to travel to South Africa to find native heart succulents, but they are also available in other areas as well. The seeds to these succulents are considered to be quite rare but if you have a green thumb and are able to get some from the Plant Valley website, you may just have a great hobby to start.
You will love the adorable, heart-shaped Conophytum bilobum succulents.
The leaves will make you think of cartoon hearts coming up from the ground.
