Echeveria 'Silver Surfer' quick care tips

Watering

Echeveria 'Silver Surfer' 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 'Silver Surfer' 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 'Silver Surfer' 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 'Silver Surfer'

A cultivar of Echeveria colorata x Echeveria 'Mexican Giant' introduced in Autumn 2018 by Surreal Succulents.

This outstanding hybrid Echeveria 'Silver Surfer' is such a rewarding succulent, it produces these beautiful pink and blue pastel colours when grown in high light levels. The rosette form is compact and grows on a solitary stem which will offset once established. A slow one to propagate.

Echeverias make fantastic feature plants and when planted with other succulents and cactus give you a real Mediterranean/desert looking garden.
