Echeveria vanvlietii quick care tips

Watering

Echeveria vanvlietii 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 vanvlietii 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 vanvlietii 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 vanvlietii

Echeveria vanvlietii is a distinct species from Bolivia. Named after the collector Dirk van Vliet.

This Echeveria always shines out with its yellow-red colours that become intense in full summer sun. It throws off multiple flower spikes in the spring.

A great plant for a conservatory or among a succulent bed.
