Highlights
Echeveria 'Neon Breakers' PP21406 (O'Connell): A real standout, this rosette can show shades of pink, purple, and blue-green. It has distinctive leaf edges that are hot pink and crinkled. In the spring and summer growing season, it can send up a tall, purple bloom stalks with vibrant pink flowers. Grow this one in bright sunlight for color and prepare to be amazed.
Please Note: This variety has thinner leaves than most Echeveria. This makes leaves more likely to dry or break in transit, but the plant will recover quickly.
Echeveria need bright sunlight to maintain their colors and compact rosette form. They will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light.
Like most succulents, they need great drainage and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
Also known as "Mexican Hens & Chicks", Echeveria can produce new offsets or "chicks" around the base of the mother plant. These chicks can be left to form a tidy cluster or removed and transplanted. Additionally, Echeveria can be propagated from stem cuttings or mature leaves. Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for more information.
