Plant/Product Description:
Echeveria Blue Sky is a visually striking succulent that features a stunning rosette of thick, fleshy leaves. The leaves are a soft, powdery blue with subtle hues of pink and lavender at the edges, which intensify when exposed to full sunlight, giving it a beautiful, frosty appearance. The compact, symmetrical rosette makes it an ideal choice for containers, succulent arrangements, or decorative garden beds. In spring, Echeveria Blue Sky produces small, bell-shaped pink flowers that contrast beautifully with the plant’s cool-toned foliage. Its bold color and elegant form make it a standout addition to any succulent collection.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate bright, indirect light. Full sun brings out the vibrant colors and enhances leaf tips.
- 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 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 Blue Sky is generally winter dormant, meaning it requires less water and growth slows during the cooler months.
- 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 Blue Sky is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
