Echeveria Minima (4 inch)

About the Echeveria Minima (4 inch)

Echeveria Minima, a mini succulent, easily forms charming clusters. It has thin, spoon-shaped leaves, tightly packed in a green state, with red or purple-tipped edges under stress. During spring and summer, slender flower spikes produce unique orange flowers.

How to Care for Echeveria Minima (4 inch)

Sunlight: Outdoor growth in full sunlight during spring and fall results in red-tipped leaves. Indoor care may lead to stretching if light is insufficient.

Temperature: Beware of high summer temperatures; move to a shaded, ventilated area when exceeding 90°F. Not frost-resistant; protect in winter.

Watering: Follow the soak and dry principle. Bottom watering is recommended to avoid wetting the leaves.

Soil and Pot: Choose well-draining succulent and cactus mix and pots with drainage holes, allowing ample growth space, around twice the size of the succulent.

We pack all shipments by hand. 

We have many years of experience shipping live succulents and cactus plants. We pay close attention to packing and have developed an expert shipping method.

It is important to us that you are able to Keep going and Keep growing without any stress about the quality of the product or packaging.

Shipping Speed

In general, it takes 3 to 10 days for plants to arrive after you place your order. All orders will be shipped out 48 hours after you place them. We ship the orders on work days(from Monday to Saturday) and all year round. In normal conditions, it will take 3-10 days for you to receive the package. Estimated shipping times are offered as needed.

EXTREME WEATHER NOTICE: The Next Gardener reserves the right to hold shipments during storms or periods of extreme heat or cold. This is to ensure your plant does not suffer while it is in transit.

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.

Sorry. No International Shipping for now!!!
