Echeveria 'Blue Bird' quick care tips

Watering

Echeveria 'Blue Bird' is a drought-tolerant succulent variety, so watering around once per week in the peak growing season is advised. Ensure the soil dries between waterings. It is also advised to completely stop watering when conditions are frosty, keeping the plant dry for several months at a time.

Feeding

Echeveria 'Blue Bird' likes to be fed to bring out its best forms and colours. We recommend feeding with a liquid seaweed feed every 2 weeks in the main growing season from April to September.

Ideal soil

Echeveria 'Blue Bird' needs free draining soil to thrive. We recommend a mixture of 1/3 John Innes no.2, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 coconut coir. The soil mix we offer here is similar in composition to this. Adding extra grit may be useful to add even more drainage for these desert-dwellers.

Most likely a hybrid of Echeveria colorata x Echeveria desmetiana by Frank Reinelt.

Echeveria 'Blue Bird' features glaucous leaves and compact rosettes. It takes on red-pink tints in strong light. It will throw off multiple flower stems in summer carrying pink-orange flowers.

A wonderful plant, deserves a feature spot in a succulent display.
