Description.
Echeveria 'Purple Pearl' is an eye-catching evergreen succulent forming a large rosette, 12 in. across (30 cm), of fleshy, slightly rounded, pointed, olive green to lavender-rose leaves adorned with pink edges. The more sun, the more rosy color.
How to grow Echeveria Purple Pearl.
Another way to propagate Echeveria 'Purple Pearl' is by division of deviants, which are small rosettes that form around the base of the parent plant. Simply gently separate the offsets from the parent plant and plant them in their own pots. And that's it!
How to care Echeveria Purple Pearl.
Echeveria 'Purple Pearl' does not require much water. No scheduled watering; Instead, pay attention to the state of the tree and weather conditions.
A. Weather.
During hot weather or low temperatures, succulents become dormant. Reduce watering, usually 1-2 weeks watering. Since the plant's growth is stalled when inactive, its ability to absorb water and nutrients is quite slow. At the same time, keep the environment dry and ventilated. Regular watering can cause succulent plants to die from black rot.
B. Time.
In the summer, water in the evening to avoid the midday sun, because the high temperature makes the newly watered soil sultry, making the roots susceptible to black rot. Time doesn't matter in other seasons.
C. Succulent state.
Succulent plants show obvious symptoms when they need water. For example, leaves wrinkle, curl when they lack water, and droop and droop when they are thirsty. It is the lack of water signal sent by the succulent plant.
D. Land.
You can also determine whether or not to water by observing the soil moisture. For potted succulents, you can weigh the pot on your hand to judge how much water is left in the soil, because the weight of the soil when enough or lack of water will vary quite a lot. In addition, if there is a gap between the outer edge of the soil and the inner edge of the pot, or the surface of the soil is cracked, it is also a sign of lack of water.
E. Pot.
Pots with good ventilation will lose water faster, so the frequency may be higher. For porcelain pots or pots without drainage holes, the watering frequency should be lower.
After the time of planting and caring, now is the time for you to enjoy and see the results of your efforts.
