Plant/Product Description:
Echeveria Cream Puff is a charming and elegant succulent known for its soft, pale green leaves with a creamy, almost white hue. The leaves are thick, fleshy, and arranged in a perfectly symmetrical rosette. As it matures, the plant may develop subtle pink or lavender tinges along the edges of the leaves, especially when exposed to bright sunlight. Echeveria Cream Puff has a compact, low-growing habit, making it an ideal choice for containers, succulent arrangements, or garden beds. In spring, it produces small, tubular flowers in shades of coral or pink, which add a delightful contrast to the plant's soft-colored foliage.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate bright, indirect light. Full sun encourages the best color and compact growth.
- 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 Cream Puff is generally winter dormant, requiring less water during the cooler months and slowing growth.
- 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 Cream Puff is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
