Botanical Name:
Echeveria agavoides
Common Names:
Lipstick Plant
Plant Category:
Succulent
Plant/Product Description:
Echeveria agavoides, commonly known as the Lipstick Plant, is a striking succulent renowned for its compact, symmetrical rosette of thick, fleshy, pointed leaves. The leaves are a vibrant green with red or pink tips that intensify when the plant is exposed to full sunlight, giving it the "lipstick" appearance. This variety forms a low, mounding rosette that grows slowly, making it an excellent choice for containers, succulent arrangements, or decorative garden beds. In late winter to early spring, Echeveria agavoides produces small, tubular pink flowers on tall stems, adding a beautiful contrast to the plant’s vivid foliage. Its attractive form and colorful tips make it a popular choice for succulent collectors and gardeners.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate bright, indirect light. Full sun enhances the vibrant colors of the leaves.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Soil: Requires a well-draining cactus or succulent mix with added perlite or pumice for optimal drainage.
- Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C). It is not frost-tolerant and should be protected from freezing temperatures.
- Dormancy: Echeveria agavoides is generally winter dormant, requiring less water during the cooler months when growth slows.
- Propagation: Easily propagated by leaf cuttings or offsets. Allow the cut ends to callous before replanting in well-draining soil.
- Pests: Generally pest-resistant but may occasionally attract mealybugs or aphids. Regular inspections help maintain plant health.
Toxicity:
Echeveria agavoides is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
