Do succulents need a lot of light?

Best Answers

If your succulents aren’t getting enough light you’ll notice they will start to stretch. They spread out their leaves and bend toward the light to get as much exposure as possible. Stretched out leaves is a common fate for most colorful succulents, such as Echeverias, that are grown indoors. read more
