Echeveria 'Peacockii' Cluster

Echeveria peacockii (aka E. desmetiana, E. subsessilis) (Croucher): Rosette of silvery blue leaves with pink, pointed tips. This variety can show slight ridges along the middle of its leaves and has a thick, powdery coating of farina (epicuticular wax) that protects it from the hot sun of its native Mexican habitat. Each summer, it sends up a tall, arching bloom stalk with coral, bell-shaped flowers.

Echeveria need bright sunlight to maintain their colors and compact rosette form. They will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light.

Like most succulents, they need great drainage and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.

Please Note: Plant will ship bare root with little to no dirt.
