Brazilian Edelweiss: a plant with velvety leaves that you will immediately want in your apartment

Sinningia leucotricha or Brazilian Edelweiss is a plant that belongs to the succulent family. It's not that common, so it always makes everyone who sees it happy. It is distinctive because of its soft, hair-like leaves, so you will immediately want to pet it.

The silvery leaves can grow up to 15cm tall and 10cm wide, and the pink flowers appear in late spring and early summer. After flowering, its leaves also fall off, as the plant goes into a dormant phase, but don't worry - it will grow back.

Brazilian Edelweiss it likes semi-shaded places, but also slightly indirect light. Moist soil suits it, but not overheated. It can survive if you forget to water it, but it won't survive if it dries out completely. During dormancy, greatly reduce or even stop watering. She likes it if she can draw the necessary moisture from the draining bottom, but when watering, be careful not to water the leaves, but rather only earth.
