Echeveria elegans
Echeverias are the jewels of the succulent world. Their perfect geometric rosettes come in an extraordinary range of colours — from silvery blue-green to deep purple and coral pink — and many produce delicate bell-shaped flowers on long stems. They're compact, slow-growing, and incredibly easy to care for.

Care Guide
How to care for your Echeveria
Quick Care Steps
Light
Give maximum sun — at least 4–6 hours of direct or bright indirect light daily.
Watering
Soak thoroughly, then allow to dry completely. Never water the rosette.
Soil
Use a specialist cactus and succulent mix for excellent drainage.
Propagation
Propagate from leaf cuttings or offsets (chicks) that form around the base.
Common Issues & Fixes
Stretching (etiolation)
Needs more light — move to a sunnier spot.

Water trapped in the rosette causing rot. Water the soil only.
Wrinkled leaves
Underwatering — give a thorough soak.
