Q. Do Aeoniums like full sun?

Aeoniums can be grown outdoors in zones 9 to 11 and, although they will tolerate partial shade, need at least six hours of full sun a day to develop their leaf colors. Indoors in pots Aeoniums need bright sunlight and moisture and do best in shallow containers.

Q. How do you know if your succulent is getting too much sun?

When succulents are getting the right amount of sun they’ll often “blush” or change colors. This is such a beautiful transformation to see! If they start to get too much sun however the leaves will actually burn. You may begin to notice white or pale patches on the succulent leaves.

Q. What light is best for succulents?

Q. Is red or blue light better for succulents?

Plants tend to use blue light to grow larger while red light can stimulate flowering. Grow lights that produce only red and blue light can be slightly more efficient, but full spectrum, white lights support healthy plant growth without the annoying purple light.

Q. What color LED light is best for seedlings?
