How to care for Echeveria Pulidonis(Walther) (6 inch)
Sun/Temperature: It prefers ample sunlight. However, intense direct sunlight in summer can scorch its leaves, so shading is necessary during this season. It can tolerate temperatures ranging from 20 °F to 50 °F. Exposure to frigid air in winter can affect plant growth, so avoiding extreme winter conditions is best.
Soil/Watering: Echeveria prefers well-draining soil. You can use succulent soil containing 50% to 70% mineral grit, such as coarse sand, perlite, or pumice. When watering, ensure the soil is dry between waterings to avoid overwatering or water accumulation. The soak-dry method is recommended, with watering thoroughly when the soil is dry.
Pot: Choose a suitable pot type, such as a sandy or ceramic pot, with adequate drainage holes to facilitate drainage and prevent waterlogging.
Propagation: It propagates readily from leaf propagation. Picking healthy leaves and let the wounds dry, and then plant them in dry soil, waiting for them to sprout.
Diseases: Echeveria is susceptible to attacks by mealybugs. They can be treated with soap, water, or alcohol. Additionally, dried leaves from the bottom of the plant during growth should be removed to prevent the accumulation of pests and fungi. Lastly, avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
