Echeveria prolifica quick care tips

Watering

Echeveria prolifica 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 prolifica 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 prolifica 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 prolifica

Echeveria prolifica by name and prolific by nature, native to Mexico.

This is one of the fastest offsetting Echeverias around and will fill out any pot within 2 growing seasons. It drops leaves easily adding to the cause of an extreme overload of the plant, not a negative due to its true beauty. It will start and stay a ghost-blue and blush pink under strong light.

A great addition to any collection, we recommend planting in a pot by itself.
