-About Echeveria Red Robe (4 inch)-
Echeveria Red Robe is a preciously gorgeous succulent. The deep maroon to pale violet red huge foliage gives this sturdy rosette the feature of pearlescent marble with flammulated, rubrical tinges. The gorgeous rosette is prone to produce intense offsets to form the cluster. By the way, there is another confounding baby succulent named E. Zeatar to Echeveria Red Robe since the highly similar appearance, both being apt to get multi-headed and crested.
-How to care for Echeveria Red Robe (4 inch) -
Sun/Location: Echeveria Red Robe's maintenance can be referred to E. Zeatar. Echeveria Red Robe feels happy to absorb sufficient sunshine for at least 4-6 hours per day during the growing season in spring and autumn to develop its eye-catching color and striking rosette. E. Red Robe would be etiolated with slender stalks without sufficient sunlight. A shade net or shed is obligatory to avoid being sunburnt in intense hot summer. Full-spectrum LED growth light is integral to keeping from frost in harsh winter.
Soil/Pot: Pick up a breathable container like clay pots or ceramic planters to Echeveria Red Robe. It feels happy to thrive in ventilated and porous potting soil, such as blending the perlite or pumice with succulent or cactus potting soil to evaporate moisture more smoothly and maintain moderate humidity. Repot in warm spring to upgrade your potting mix to improve the porosity. Tug off these dry leaves and discard them to avoid fungal and bacterial diseases.
Watering: Same as most Echeveria succulents, Echeveria Red Robe is also a resilient plant, enduring conditions other plants cannot. It is drought-tolerant, requiring occasional and sparing watering. Echeveria Red Robe hates soggy potting soil. The soak-and-dry method is generally applied when the potting soil is bone dry. The immersive watering method is also recommendable if placed in a ventilated and breathable location. Be careful to water along the edge of the pot to the potting soil instead of the rosette and foliage, preventing waterlogging, bacteria, and fungal diseases.
