Echeveria laui quick care tips
Watering
Watering
Echeveria laui 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
Feeding
Echeveria laui 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. A feed we recommend is the one from our friends at LittleGreenSeaweed.
Ideal soil
Ideal soil
Echeveria laui 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.

Echeveria laui
Echeveria laui is truly one of the most beautiful and remarkable species of Echeveria on the planet, and a real must for any keen succulent growers.
Echeveria laui is native to southern Mexico, located close to the city of Oaxaca. It thrives on little water, whilst clinging to rough rocky outcrops surrounded by other drought-tolerant Succulents such as Agaves, Yuccas and Sedums.
These delightful powder dusted Echeverias grow very slowly. With careful under watering, plenty of light and air movement, especially during the winter, they will thrive. Echeveria laui wil look better and better with age.
Can make a stunning windowsill plant.
