This has been the hardest time I've ever had trying to save this plant.I have never seen another one since i bought this one & it's so colorful i don't want to loose it.
I checked it today & if i with hold water any longer I'm going to kill it.The soil is so dry (completely through) it starting to drop leaves our temp's are in the 90's most days.The leaves are curling in and falling off just bumping the pot.Peat does hold a lot of water but in really hot weather it dries out fast & dries to bone dry.But i wonder if after it was out in those days of rain it didn't get some kind of fungus or disease that is using the fact that the plant is a succulent & is getting moisture from the leaves.They now feel thin and easy to bend etc.. Like there's no water in the leaves.
I am going to re-pot & bring inside for a period of R&R.
The last picture was what the soil looks like after 2 days of no water,bone dry,pulling away from the side of the pot.
