Winter brings some different challenges that can cause your succulents to droop, lose leaves, or even get seriously damaged. So, we need to find out why this happens and how you can help your succulents bounce back! If you're dealing with a succulent that has leaves falling off and is wilting, it's a sign that something is off with its care routine. Here's what to do:
Frost damage: One of the main culprits for drooping succulents in winter is frost. When the temperatures dip too low, frost can settle on the leaves and stems, damaging the plant. The first sign? Wilting leaves that can turn brown or black, becoming dry and crispy. It might even look like your succulent is on its last legs!
What to do: Hold off on trimming right away! Wait for warmer weather when new growth appears before cutting off any damaged parts. Once you see fresh leaves, carefully snip off the frost-bitten areas with clean scissors. After pruning, don't water the plant right away. Give the cuts time to heal before resuming a light watering schedule.
