The Echeveria Mexican pulidonis boasts plump, oval-shaped leaves with a stunning red border that encircles each one .The leaves are covered with farian and the blades curve inward.

In the summertime, this succulent produces gorgeous pale pink flowers. With its low-maintenance needs and visually striking foliage, the Echeveria Mexican pulidonis is an excellent option for anyone new to succulent care. 

How to care for Echeveria Mexican pulidonis

Sun/Temperature: For optimal growth, the Echeveria Mexican pulidonis requires 5-6 hours of bright, diffused, or direct light daily. If you want to enhance the red coloration of its leaves, then total sun exposure is recommended. However, during the summer, you must avoid exposing it to direct solid light as it can cause sunburn. As part of the Echeveria family, it can tolerate varying temperatures, but it's worth noting that extreme temperatures can impede its growth. Therefore, it's best to protect it from temperatures below 30°F and above 90°F. Maintaining temperatures between 60-80°F is ideal for the Echeveria Mexican pulidoni's well-being.

Soil/Watering: To provide your plant with the best care possible, we recommend using commercially available succulent soil or creating your own with a blend of 50% granular soil, 40% peat soil, and 10% vermiculite or coconut flour. For watering, the soak-and-dry method works great. Avoid stagnant water after watering or rain showers to prevent root rot and other potential issues.

Pot: Make sure you use a pot with drainage holes. It will help keep them healthy. Consider notched pots for Echeveria Mexican pulidonis once the stems have matured for a stunning addition to your garden or interior.

Propagation: You have two excellent options: cutting or leaf propagation. The first step is to carefully select healthy, whole leaves and use sterilized scissors or a sharp knife to make your cuts. Allow your cuttings to dry in a shaded area until the wounds heal. Then, plant them in some dry soil and wait for the roots to sprout. Keep the soil slightly moist until the leaves have successfully rooted, and then switch to the soak and dry watering method.

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.

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.
