About Sedeveria Markus
Sedeveria Markus is a succulent plant with a compact and charming growth habit. It has plump, elongated oval leaves with a smooth surface, usually dark green, sometimes with a reddish edge. Sedeveria Markus is a hybrid of Echeveria and Sedum, inheriting the characteristics of both, with the compact and graceful appearance of Echeveria and the drought and cold resistance of Sedum. Under suitable conditions, it quickly forms side shoots and develops into a multi-headed stump.
How to care for Sedeveria Markus

Regarding diseases, the main concern is to prevent root rot, so maintaining good drainage and appropriate watering is crucial.
