Echeveria 'Amazing Grace' (4 inch)

About Echeveria 'Amazing Grace'

Echeveria 'Amazing Grace' is a premier hybrid cultivar distinguished by its elegant rosettes and dynamic color transformation. This specimen develops 5-6 inch symmetrical spirals of spatulate leaves with a base hue of dusty seafoam green. Under sustained sunlight exposure, the foliage transitions to a gradient of blush-pink margins and lavender undertones, accentuated by delicate red edging. Mature plants produce arching inflorescences in late spring, bearing bell-shaped flowers with tangerine petals and golden throats. Its exceptional stress coloration and prolific offsetting habit make it ideal for ornamental containers and living wall installations.

How to Care for Echeveria 'Amazing Grace'

Light: Requires 5-6 hours of direct morning sun with filtered afternoon light. Southern exposures optimize color development, while USDA zones 9-11 necessitate 30% shade cloth during summer afternoons (>85°F/29°C) to prevent photobleaching.

Water: Employ deep irrigation only when soil is completely dry (finger-test to 1-inch depth). Summer watering intervals typically span 10-14 days; reduce to monthly in winter dormancy. Prevent water accumulation in leaf axils.

Temperature: Ideal range: 60-78°F (15-26°C). Tolerates brief frost to 28°F (-2°C) when dry. Prolonged heat above 90°F (32°C) requires increased airflow and light diffusion.

Soil & Potting: Use porous substrate (60% mineral grit: pumice/perlite). Select shallow pots 1.5-2 inches wider than rosettes. Glazed ceramic with drainage holes enhances moisture stability while complementing foliage hues.

Fertilizer: Apply low-nitrogen formula (3-5-5 NPK) at 25% strength bi-monthly during active growth (April-September). Cease fertilization during dormancy.

Pests & Disease: Moderate susceptibility to mealybugs. Inspect stem bases quarterly; treat infestations with systemic insecticide. Root rot prevention requires strict adherence to dry-down cycles.

Propagation: Echeveria 'Amazing Grace' propagates most effectively via offset division with >95% success. Separate 1-inch diameter pups during spring repotting, air-dry connections for 48 hours, then plant in dry pumice mix. Delay watering for 10 days post-planting. Maintain 65-70°F (18-21°C) and provide bright indirect light. New rosettes mature in 4-5 months, with optimal results in early spring.

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.
