How to care for Echeveria Elegans Raspberry Ice
Sun/Location: Like most Echeveria, Echeveria Elegans raspberry ice requires indirect bright sunlight to maintain its color and shape. It can be placed outdoors in spring and fall to get full sunlight. Shade is required in summer to avoid sunburn. In winter, protection from frost is needed.
Soil/Pot: To ensure the health of succulent plants, they need porous, well-draining soil to live in. To create an adequate succulent soil mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or gritty rocks to garden soil to provide the proper drainage.
Watering: Succulents require little watering but don't like to sit in wet soil. The best way of watering is the ''soak and dry'' method. Water thoroughly when succulent soil is dry.

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.

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.
