❗LOOK!!❗Items cannot be shipped to CALIFORNIA or ARIZONA due to state import laws. Any orders from these states will be canceled. My apologies for this inconvenience. 3.5" pot, Succulents, SucculentName: Cyanotis somaliensis  Scientific Name: Cyanotis somaliensis Family: Commelinaceae Product Description     This short succulent is known for its low growth habit and fuzzy appearance. With thin pointed leaves covered in a fine short fuzz, giving the appearance of a cat's ears – hence its other common names. The leaves are lanced shaped and olive green, covering the sprawling stems which look excellent as a filler or in a hanging basket. Origination: Northern Somalia Recommended Uses: Ornamental Height: 5 in (12 cm) Hardiness: USDA Zones 9-11 Bloom color: Mauve Other Names: Pussy Ears, Kitten Ears, Furry Kittens Growing Instructions: Bright light, Low Water A bright sunny spot is ideal but it will tolerate a medium light. When it doesn't get enough light, it can get leggy, with long stems between the leaves. If this happens you can prune it without hurting the overall health of the plant. Cut it back at any time of year. By cutting it back, you'll encourage a fuller or bushier plant. Water only when the soil has dried, avoiding over-watering and keeping the soil damp. Proper drainage is key, and will help the soil to dry versus holding onto the water for extended periods. A well-draining, coarse soil mix should be used such as the commercial ones intended for cactus or succulents. Fertilize with half strength during spring or summer. Ships in the 3.5” pots shown in the pictures. You will receive a plant that is very similar to the plants pictured however they may have grown some or depending on the time of year, they could be semi-dormant. Some plants will drop their leaves in winter - Crown of Thorns, Buddha Belly Jatropha, Etc. I have only grown plants in Florida and will send out anything I feel comfortable will grow here. It is up to you to know the conditions that these plants grow in the part of the country you reside. If your plant arrives rotting or dead, we will replace it for you. Please contact me within 24 hours of delivery of your plants. It is my duty to get you a live healthy plant- a few broken leaves or small stems not counting as this is normal. Again, we cannot guarantee that some leaves won’t be broken or fall off- It is normal to lose some depending on the variety (Sedum, Echeveria, Cotyledon, Graptopetalum, etc...). Many kinds of leaves will re-root and grow into a new plant. Some that do not are Cotyledon and Aeonium. After 24 hours, my job is done and it is up to you (The buyer) to know how to keep it alive. I will accept some returns, however, since a shipped plant cannot be returned in its original condition, I can only offer a 50% refund. We take great care in packaging our plants and problems have been VERY rare.   Heat packs are available for purchase with your item to use if cold weather is expected at the time of shipment. (Link to Heat Pack: https://www.ebay.com/itm/146333255563 ) Keep in mind some plants we carry are very tropical and even cold, not freezing, temperatures can kill them. I will cancel any order I feel won't make it safely to its destination without freezing. 📌IF YOU EXPECT COLD WEATHER, PLEASE PURCHASE A HEAT PACK! 📌 I don't make any profit off of them because they are a necessary shipping item in winter.  Basic care instructions are included with your order. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me for any extra advice you may require. We want you to be successful with our babies!  And if you have any questions about this item or others, please message me and I will gladly answer them.
