About Echeveria Agavoides Halloween
Echeveria Agavoides Halloween is a rare hybrid succulent that is created by crossing Echeveria Agavoides Ebony and Echeveria cuspidata var. zaragozae Kimnach. It features a tough rosette shape and sharp, bloody-red tips. The leaves are coated with a waxy texture layer, making them look bright and smooth. As the plant thrives, the leaves will develop bloody spots on the front end. Echeveria Agavoides Halloween is not easy to stretch out, even under low light conditions. However, the color of the leaves may fade to pale green over time.
How to Care for Echeveria Agavoides Halloween
Sunlight: Indoor-planted Echeveria Agavoides Halloween performs well as long as it is located near windows to receive six-hour sunlight daily. The waxy pale green leaves will turn to light yellow-pink while thriving. For outdoor growth, Echeveria Agavoides Halloween is known for turning its leaves into a red-to-black shade with bloody spots, which is highly attractive to collectors. The more sunlight exposure, the darker red the leaves will be. Move the plant to the patio or provide shade in summer to prevent sunburn.
Water: Watering Echeveria Agavoides Halloween is as easy as watering other live succulents. It is crucial to ensure the potted soil mix is completely dry between each watering. Check the potting soil moisture by using a moisture meter or sticking one finger in the soil to test. Additionally, if the bottom leaves are soft, it is another sign that the plant requires watering.
Soil & Planter: To improve the drainage, add around 30-40% perlite and gritty rocks to the potting soil before applying it to Echeveria Agavoides Halloween. This succulent variety grows slowly and prefers a planter pot slightly wider than the dimension of its rosette. Make sure that the planter pot has a drainage hole at the bottom.
Temperature: Echeveria Agavoides Halloween enjoys living in a warm and dry environment with a temperature range of 50-77℉. Move the plant indoors before the temperature drops to 32℉ as this variety is not a cold hardy succulent.
Fertilizer: Replant the succulent with fresh organic soil every spring, which can provide the essential nutrients for them to thrive. Moreover, feeding them with slow-release fertilizer two or three times in spring can also meet the need.
Propagation: Leaf propagation is an efficient way to grow more succulents. It is important to take healthy and plump leaves from the mother plant and let the wound callus over before placing them on the soil.

I found a lot of unusual plants on this site, so of course I had to get some. They all were packed so well, were so healthy, and so cute. I love them all, I keep looking at different ones to add on to my collection. Keep up the good work!
This echeveria arrived less than a week & was happy to add to my collection.
Bought dozens of plants so far & all are thriving on my garden. This Elsa is a pretty echeveria to add to my garden.
