Water: Graptoveria 'Lovely Rose' thrives in arid environments with minimal water. It is drought-tolerant, storing water in its leaves, needing watering only every three weeks. Indoor cultivation is preferred, providing ample light while avoiding excess moisture to maintain its delicate rosette form.

Fertilize: Succulent plants typically thrive in poor environments and often do not require fertilization. A small amount of slow-release fertilizer can be applied in early summer, but avoid fertilizing during dormancy to prevent nutrient overload, which can harm growth.

Pruning: To maintain a beautiful shape, large succulent plants like graptoveria 'Lovely Rose' require pruning in spring and fall, removing dense or redundant branches. For propagation, select a strong stem with 5-6 leaves, cut, apply sulfur powder to the wound, and plant in slightly wet soil after healing.

Propagation: To propagate graptoveria 'Lovely Rose', use healthy leaves for cutting propagation, typically in spring or fall. Cut a whole leaf, place it on slightly humid soil, and ensure a temperature of 25℃ (77℉) with bright, scattered light. A bud will appear at the leaf base in 1-2 weeks.
