Gardeners told to stop watering succulents for winter

A gardening tip circulating in early November urges plant owners to stop watering their summer-growing succulents as winter approaches. The advice covers agave, aloe, cactus, euphorbia, gasteria, huernia, kalanchoe and pachypodium, saying they need a break from water until spring. The recommendation reflects the standard practice of letting drought-adapted plants go dormant and dry over the cold months.

Why now: It is early November, when gardeners adjust watering routines for winter dormancy.
