Echeveria 'Venus' quick care tips

Watering

Echeveria 'Venus' 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 'Venus' 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 'Venus' 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 'Venus'

A 2016 introduction from Echeveria Universe.

This hybrid features chalky white leaves that take on red colour at the margins in the summer sun. Can grow to a large size with thick fleshy leaves. Once mature, the rosette will spiral and show off an out-of-this-world appearance. It will flower every year.

Perfect as a display plant in a conservatory.
