Plant/Product Description:
Echeveria Violacina is a stunning succulent known for its large, symmetrical rosettes of thick, fleshy leaves that are a soft green to bluish-gray with deep purple hues along the edges. These vibrant colors become more pronounced when the plant is exposed to full sun. In late winter to early spring, Echeveria Violacina produces small, bell-shaped flowers that range in color from pink to orange, adding a vibrant contrast to the plant’s striking foliage. Its unique coloration and easy-care nature make it an excellent choice for containers, succulent arrangements, or garden beds.
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 Violacina 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 Violacina is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
