Sinocrassula yunnanensis 'Napoli Noire' (Black Napoli)

Sinocrassula yunnanensis 'Napoli Noire': This variety is distinguished by its dense, compact foliage, composed of small, tightly packed leaves. The distinctive feature of 'Napoli Noire' lies in the color of its leaves, which can range from deep green to almost black, often with a slightly waxy or shiny texture.

Origin: Sinocrassula yunnanensis is native to the mountainous regions of Yunnan in China. The 'Napoli Noire' variety, as its name suggests, has been cultivated for its unique aesthetic qualities.

Flowers: Sinocrassulas can produce small flowers, usually white or cream, but flowering is relatively rare in indoor cultivation.

Light: Prefer bright but indirect light. Too much direct light can burn the leaves, while too little light can cause the plant to stretch.

Watering: As with most succulents, moderate watering is necessary. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

Substrate: Well-drained soil is essential. A cactus and succulent mix with pumice or perlite is ideal.

Temperature: Prefers moderate temperatures. Protect from frost and extreme cold.

Toxicity: There is no specific information on the toxicity of Sinocrassula yunnanensis 'Napoli Noire', but it is always recommended to keep plants out of the reach of children and pets.
