About Echeveria 'Honey Pink' (4 inch)
Echeveria 'Honey Pink' derives its name from its vibrant flower color and adorable form. Its floral symbolism represents romance and sweetness. It is a miniature rosette-shaped variety with smooth-edged, pointed, thick leaves that curve upwards in an arc. The leaves transition from powder blue to pink, with the lower ends typically greenish and the tips reddish.
How to care for Echeveria 'Honey Pink' (4 inch)
Sun/Temperature: Echeveria 'Honey Pink' is not particularly sun-tolerant, so it's best kept in well-lit environments. Still, shade should be provided during scorching summer temperatures to prevent leaf sunburn as the potting soil dries out. Ideal growth temperatures range from 60°F to 80°F, with winter temperatures not dropping below 40°F.
Soil/Watering: It requires well-draining, organically rich soil, such as a general succulent potting mix, with a minimum of 70% coarse particles. Echeveria 'Honey Pink' is quite drought-tolerant due to its thick leaves, but when unsure of soil moisture, a "soak watering method" can be applied by gently pinching the bottom leaves—if they feel soft, it's time to water.
Repotting: Echeveria 'Honey Pink' grows slowly, so repotting is optional. However, prompt repotting is essential to prevent growth issues, including root death and abnormal leaf withering, if the soil becomes compacted.
Disease susceptibility: Echeveria 'Honey Pink' is relatively resistant to pests and diseases, but overwatering can lead to root rot. Proper ventilation and adequate moisture management are crucial for disease prevention.
