Echeveria 'Rainbow' quick care tips

Watering

Echeveria 'Rainbow' 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 'Rainbow' 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

Echeveria 'Rainbow' 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 'Rainbow'

The amazing Echeveria ‘Rainbow’ is a variegated form of Echeveria ‘Perle Von Nürnberg’, and is worthy of it’s name.

Echeveria ‘Rainbow’ changes colour throughout the year, from deep-pinks to all shades of purple but during the summer, the middle goes an almost fluorescent pink, creating an explosion of colour wherever it is displayed. A true collector’s plant.

Display on an east or west facing windowsill to keep a strong variegation, try not to allow midday sun on variegated plants. The perfect indoor plant.
