Echeveria purpusorum 'White Form' quick care tips

Watering

Echeveria purpusorum 'White Form' 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 purpusorum 'White Form' 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 purpusorum 'White Form' 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 purpusorum 'White Form'

This is an extremely rare form of Echeveria purpusorum which has white colouration with red outlines. These are so highly collectable as they are extremely hard to come by. It is a strong structural plant with robust leaves and form, a truly choice plant.

It is a slow grower and to keep the white colouration it will need to be grown hard with a bright light.

This plant will lose its white colouring in a higher nutrient compost mix, so to keep the strong white colour you can plant it in a 50/50 gritty succulent mix.
