Rotate your Echeveria every couple of weeks to ensure even growth and prevent it from leaning towards the light. For propagation, gently remove offsets (pups) that form at the base of the plant once they are one-third the size of the parent plant, and allow the cut ends to callous over before planting in fresh soil. This ensures a steady supply of beautiful new succulents.

Water your Echeveria sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Use a watering can or bottle to target the base of the plant, avoiding water pooling in the rosette, which can lead to rot. During the active growing season (spring and summer), water thoroughly every 2–3 weeks. Reduce watering to once a month during winter when growth slows, ensuring the plant remains dry to prevent overwatering issues.

To plant Echeveria, choose a shallow pot with excellent drainage and fill it with a cactus or succulent-specific compost. Place the plant so the base of the leaves sits just above the soil level. Position the pot in a bright location with plenty of indirect sunlight, avoiding overly shaded spots or intense direct sunlight. If planting outdoors, choose a sunny, well-draining area and ensure the soil is not overly rich, as this can lead to leggy growth. Allow the soil to dry out slightly before watering after planting.
