Echeveria Purple Pearl Care Guide
This hardy succulent is easy to grow but requires specific care to maintain its vibrant color and form. Follow these guidelines for thriving plants.
Watering
- Water only when the soil is completely dry every 2-3 weeks in summer, sparingly in winter.
- Use the soak-and-dry method: water deeply, then let excess water drain fully to prevent root rot.
- Avoid wetting leaves to preserve the powdery farina coating.
Light
- Requires 6-8 hours of bright, indirect sunlight daily to intensify purple hues.
- Indoors, place near south or west-facing windows; use sheer curtains to filter intense sun.
- Too little light causes stretching (etiolation) and faded colors.
Temperature
- Prefers 60-80℉ (16-27℃) protect from frost and temperatures below 40℉ (4℃).
- Low humidity is ideal to avoid damp environments to prevent fungal issues.
Common Problems
- Root rot: Caused by overwatering, use gritty, well-draining soil.
- Mealybugs: Treat with neem oil or 70% isopropyl alcohol.
- Sunburn: Shield from prolonged midday sun in hot climates.
- Etiolation: Relocate to a brighter spot for compact growth.
Best Locations & Uses
- Sunlit windowsills, offices, or bright patios with filtered light
- Outdoor rock gardens, succulent beds, or fairy gardens
- Focal point in minimalist terrariums or jewel-toned decor
- Wedding centerpieces, event décor, or statement gifts
- Pairs with sedum, graptopetalum, or blue chalksticks for color contrast
- Ideal for small spaces, balconies, or drought-tolerant landscapes
