Turtle Vine | Trailing Succulent

Think of Turtle Vine as versatile with light conditions. They enjoy the balance of partial sun and shade. Too much direct sun, especially at midday, can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause the plant to become leggy or lose its vibrant color.

Turtle Vine (also known as Callisia repens) does appreciate a bit of direct sun, especially in the early morning or late afternoon, but overall, it thrives best with ample bright, indirect light. Placing it by a window where it can enjoy soft rays for a short period, followed by diffuse light, is ideal.

Watering should be done carefully. Let the top layer of soil (about an inch deep) dry out before watering again. This plant doesn’t like sitting in soggy soil—overwatering can lead to root or stem rot. Proper drainage is crucial, so ensure excess water can escape.

Although Turtle Vine tolerates average household humidity, it will appreciate slightly higher levels, typical in kitchens or bathrooms. However, it’s not too fussy and generally does well in normal indoor conditions.

The sap and leaves may be mildly irritating if pets decide to chew on them. Monitor pets around this plant or place it where they can’t easily reach it to be on the safe side.

Pruning and pinching back the ends of the stems regularly will keep your Turtle Vine looking lush and prevent it from getting too leggy or sparse. Use these trimmings to propagate new plants by placing cuttings in water or moist potting mix.
